Create basic directory structure
All new features specs go into in_progress directory.
Once signed off, it should be moved to done directory.
For now,
This change moves all the Gluster 4.0 feature specs to
in_progress. All other specs are under done/release-version.
More cleanup required will be done incrementally.

NOTE: If the directory was not present when a +snapshot was taken (say snap1) and created later, then entering snap1 +directory (or any access) will fail with stale file handle. 4) Reading +from snapshots Any kind of read operations from the snapshots should be +successful.
