Series export/fuse: Allow other users access to the export | expand

Commit Message

Without the allow_other mount option, no user (not even root) but the
one who started qemu/the storage daemon can access the export.  Allow
users to configure the export such that such accesses are possible.

When we do pass allow_other, we should also pass default_permissions,
because our export code performs no permission checks.  With
default_permissions, we can just let the kernel do it.
