Vdfuse

######################################################### This is a clone of https://github.com/jonathanxavier/vdfuse with a few minor updates to make it compile against the latest VirtualBox headers as well as a more portable build system

This Fuse module uses the VBox access library to open a VBox supported VD image file and mount it as a Fuse file system. The mount point contains a flat directory with the following files

• EntireDisk
• PartitionN

Note that each file should only be opened once and opening EntireDisk should locks out the other files. However, since file close isn't passed to the fuse utilities, I can only enforce this in a brute fashion: If you open EntireDisk then all further I/O to the PartitionN files will fail. If open any PartitionN file then all further I/O to EntireDisk will fail. Hence in practice you can only access on or the other within a single mount.
