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.
