Use the IoctlFileClone and IoctlFileCloneRange ioctl wrappers and the
FileCloneRange type provided by golang.org/x/sys/unix instead of
locally implementing them. This also allows to re-enable the code for
ppc/ppc64/ppc64le again (see commit 758a1a6a37 ("lib/fs: Disable ioctl
on ppc (fixes#6898) (#6901)")) since golang.org/x/sys/unix internally
uses the correct FICLONE and FICLONERANGE values depending on $GOARCH.
Most notably, it now detects all-lowercase files and returns these
as-is. The tests have been expanded with two cases and are now used
as a benchmark (admittedly a rather trivial one).

This changes the cache to cache less things, yet retain the required
efficiency for our walk usecase. This uses less memory.
Specifically, instead of keeping result and child caches for each path
level, only keep a single cached child. In practice our operations are
depth-first, or almost depth-first, and then we retain the same hit
ratio for a smaller cache size.
I improved the benchmark so that it counts the Lstat and DirNames
operations performed, and they do not change significantly. The amount
of allocated memory is reduced by 20% and the walk itself is actually
slightly faster.
This also removes the clear based on number of cached names (as that is
not a thing any more) and the timer based clear (which was unused). This
means we'll retain the last cache state forever until it's cleared by a
write operation, but we did that before too and that state is now a lot
smaller...
The overhead compared to not using a casefs, for our typical "double
walk" (walk the tree then stat everything again) is 2x the dirnames we
would otherwise call, and no overhead on the stats (unchanged from old
implementation)

With this change we emulate a case sensitive filesystem on top of
insensitive filesystems. This means we correctly pick up case-only renames
and throw a case conflict error when there would be multiple files differing
only in case.
This safety check has a small performance hit (about 20% more filesystem
operations when scanning for changes). The new advanced folder option
`caseSensitiveFS` can be used to disable the safety checks, retaining the
previous behavior on systems known to be fully case sensitive.

Prompted by https://forum.syncthing.net/t/infinite-filesystem-recursion-detected/15285. In my opinion the filesystem shouldn't throw warnings but pass on errors for the caller to decide what's to be happening with it. Right now in this PR an infinite recursion is a normal scan error, i.e. folder is in failed state and displays failed items, but no warning. I think that's appropriate but if deemed appropriate an additional warning can be thrown in the scanner.
- In the few places where we wrap errors, use the new Go 1.13 "%w"
construction instead of %s or %v.
- Where we create errors with constant strings, consistently use
errors.New and not fmt.Errorf.
- Remove capitalization from errors in the few places where we had that.
During some other work I discovered these tests weren't great, so I've
rewritten them to be a little better. The real changes here are:
- Don't play games with not starting the folder and such, and don't
construct a fake folder instance -- just use the one the model has. The
folder starts and scans but the folder contents are empty at this point
so that's fine.
- Use a fakefs instead of a temp dir.
- To support the above, implement a fakefs option `?content=true` to
make the fakefs actually retain written content. Use sparingly,
obviously, but it means the fakefs can usually be used instead of an
on disk real directory.
As foretold by the prophecy, "once the database refactor is merged, then
shall appear a request to propagate errors from the store known
throughout the land as the NamedspacedKV, and it shall be good".
This PR does two things, because one lead to the other:
- Move the leveldb specific stuff into a small "backend" package that
defines a backend interface and the leveldb implementation. This allows,
potentially, in the future, switching the db implementation so another
KV store should we wish to do so.
- Add proper error handling all along the way. The db and backend
packages are now errcheck clean. However, I drew the line at modifying
the FileSet API in order to keep this manageable and not continue
refactoring all of the rest of Syncthing. As such, the FileSet methods
still panic on database errors, except for the "database is closed"
error which is instead handled by silently returning as quickly as
possible, with the assumption that we're anyway "on the way out".

This adds a folder option "CopyOwnershipFromParent" which, when set,
makes Syncthing attempt to retain the owner/group information when
syncing files. Specifically, at the finisher stage we look at the parent
dir to get owner/group and then attempt a Lchown call on the temp file.
For this to succeed Syncthing must be running with the appropriate
permissions. On Linux this is CAP_FOWNER, which can be granted by the
service manager on startup or set on the binary in the filesystem. Other
operating systems do other things, but often it's not required to run as
full "root". On Windows this patch does nothing - ownership works
differently there and is generally less of a deal, as permissions are
inherited as ACLs anyway.
There are unit tests on the Lchown functionality, which requires the
above permissions to run. There is also a unit test on the folder which
uses the fake filesystem and hence does not need special permissions.
