9p: Implement TGETLOCK

Browse Source 
Synopsis

    size[4] TGetlock tag[2] fid[4] getlock[n]
    size[4] RGetlock tag[2] getlock[n]

Description

TGetlock is used to test for the existence of byte range posix locks on a file
identified by given fid. The reply contains getlock structure. If the lock could
be placed it returns F_UNLCK in type field of getlock structure.  Otherwise it
returns the details of the conflicting locks in the getlock structure

    getlock structure:
      type[1] - Type of lock: F_RDLCK, F_WRLCK
      start[8] - Starting offset for lock
      length[8] - Number of bytes to check for the lock
             If length is 0, check for lock in all bytes starting at the location
            'start' through to the end of file
      pid[4] - PID of the process that wants to take lock/owns the task
               in case of reply
      client[4] - Client id of the system that owns the process which
                  has the conflicting lock
