confusion outlined in the previous patch....

The sequence number we store in the sequence id is the last one we received
from the client. So on the next operation we'll check that the client gives
us the next higher number.
We increment sequence id's at the last moment, in encode, so that we're sure
of knowing the right error return. (The decision to increment the sequence id
depends on the exact error returned.)
However on the *first* use of a sequence number, if we set the sequence number
to the one received from the client and then let the increment happen on
encode, we'll be left with a sequence number one to high.
For that reason, ENCODE_SEQID_OP_TAIL only increments the sequence id on
*confirmed* stateowners.
This creates a problem for open reclaims, which are confirmed on first use.
Therefore the open reclaim code, as a special exception, *decrements* the
sequence id, cancelling out the undesired increment on encode. But this
prevents the sequence id from ever being incremented in the case where
multiple reclaims are sent with the same openowner. Yuch!
We could add another exception to the open reclaim code, decrementing the
sequence id only if this is the first use of the open owner.
But it's simpler by far to modify the meaning of the op_seqid field: instead
of representing the previous value sent by the client, we take op_seqid, after
encoding, to represent the *next* sequence id that we expect from the client.
This eliminates the need for special-case handling of the first use of a
stateowner.

We're returning NFS4_FH_NOEXPIRE_WITH_OPEN | NFS4_FH_VOL_RENAME for the
fh_expire_type attribute. This is incorrect:
1. The spec actually only allows NOEXPIRE_WITH_OPEN when
VOLATILE_ANY is also set.
2. Filehandles for open files can expire, if the file is removed
and there is a reboot.
3. Filehandles are only volatile on rename in the nosubtree check
case.
Unfortunately, there's no way to indicate that we only expire on remove. So
our only choice is FH4_VOLATILE_ANY. Although it's redundant, we also set
FH4_VOL_RENAME in the subtree check case, since subtreecheck does actually
cause problems in practice and it seems possibly useful to give clients some
way to distinguish that case.
Fix a mispelled #define while we're at it.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
