libglusterfsclient: Add comments to API
Some of the functions have also been moved within the header to reflect the order in which users will read through and try to understand how to use the lib. For eg. the init, mount and umount functions have been moved to the beginning to clarify how to start by init and de-initing. Signed-off-by: Anand V. Avati <avati@amp.gluster.com>
