[patch 10/10] allow unprivileged fuse mounts

From: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi at suse.cz>

Use FS_SAFE for "fuse" fs type, but not for "fuseblk".

FUSE was designed from the beginning to be safe for unprivileged
users.  This has also been verified in practice over many years.  In
addition unprivileged fuse mounts require the "usermnt" mount option
to be set on the parent mount, which is more strict than the current
userspace policy.

This will enable future installations to remove the suid-root
fusermount utility.

Don't require the "user_id=" and "group_id=" options for unprivileged
mounts, but if they are present, verify them for sanity.

Disallow the "allow_other" option for unprivileged mounts.
