storage/posix: Added janitor thread.
The janitor thread deletes all files and directories in the "/" GF_REPLICATE_TRASH_DIR directory. This directory is used by replicate self-heal to dump files and directories it deletes. This is needed because letting replicate walk the directory tree and delete a directory and all its children is too racy. Instead, replicate self-heal only does an atomic rename(), and the janitor thread takes care of actually deleting them. Signed-off-by: Vikas Gorur <vikas@gluster.com> Signed-off-by: Anand V. Avati <avati@dev.gluster.com> BUG: 227 (replicate selfheal does not remove directory with contents in it) URL: http://bugs.gluster.com/cgi-bin/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=227
