refactor(tvix/store/fuse): Switch from fuser to fuse-backend-rs r/6621
This switches the FUSE implementation from fuser to fuse-backend-rs.
fuse-backend-rs is designed to work with both FUSE and virtiofs.
Virtiofs support will make it possible to plug the tvix-store into a
microvm and have `/nix/store` access without having to setup FUSE inside
the guest.

Additionally fuse-backend-rs has nice support for running multiple FUSE
threads and has some async support.

The goal of this commit is to mechanically switch over to
fuse-backend-rs with minimal changes. I did have to add some locks here
and there because fuse-backend-rs uses `&self` on all methods whereas
fuser uses `&mut self`. `&self` is required for concurrent access to the
FUSE server, so this makes sense.

We can consider switching to concurrent maps and use some other
techniques to reduce lock contention and critical section size.
