gluster: add fallocate fop support

Implement support for the fallocate file operation. fallocate
allocates blocks for a particular inode such that future writes
to the associated region of the file are guaranteed not to fail
with ENOSPC.

This patch adds fallocate support to the following areas:

	- libglusterfs
	- mount/fuse
	- io-stats
	- performance/md-cache,open-behind
	- quota
	- cluster/afr,dht,stripe
	- rpc/xdr
	- protocol/client,server
	- io-threads
	- marker
	- storage/posix
	- libgfapi
