features/changelog : historical journal consumption.

Facilitates Glusterfs with the ability to detect file-operations
happened in past by scanning the back-end(brick-level) glusterfs
journal (changelog).

Design:
  * List of changelogs produces in one perfectly running session are
    stored in htime file which also holds necessary information about
    the session start and end time.
  * Involves fixed sized seeks to identify N'th changelog in the list.
  * Requires O(log n), (where n is number of changelogs in the list),
    time to identify the end changelog for the given start-end time
    interval.

Currently the background processing of changelogs is sub optimal. BZ
1097041 tracks the development effort.
