fuse: remove the 1GiB buffer view limit

[chinasasu]

This replaces the fixed (*[1 << 30]byte)(unsafe.Pointer(...)) buffer view with an unsafe.Slice view sized to the actual request.

Why this change:

• the current code path assumes that every C buffer passed into hostRead, hostWrite, hostSetxattr, hostGetxattr, hostListxattr, hostReadlink, and hostGetpath is at most 1 GiB long
• when a caller issues a larger request, expressions like buff[:size0] can panic before the filesystem callback is reached
• recoverAsErrno then converts that panic into -EIO, which surfaces as an unexpected I/O failure to the caller

What this patch does:

• adds a small helper to construct a Go byte slice from the incoming C pointer and request length
• uses that helper in the affected host entrypoints
• preserves the existing zero-length behavior for string-returning helpers before indexing size0-1

Validation:

• downstream Windows FUSE integration tests reproduced IO DEVICE ERROR for a single ReadFile request larger than 1 GiB before this change
• with this patch applied, the same request reaches the filesystem read callback successfully
• go test ./fuse passes locally

I understand that this may solve a real problem for you. However we still need to support 32-bit systems and this looks a bit complicated to me.

The expression ^uint(0)>>32 yields 0 on 32-bit systems and binary ...111 on 64-bit or higher (including future 128-bit) systems. Therefore the expression ^uint(0)>>32&1 yields 0 on 32-bit and 1 on 64-bit. Finally the expression 30 + 10*(^uint(0)>>32&1) yields 30 on 32-bit and 40 on 64-bit.

So perhaps the following change should do the trick. From:

buff := (*[1 << 30]byte)(unsafe.Pointer(buff0))

To:

buff := (*[1 << (30 + 10*(^uint(0)>>32&1))]byte)(unsafe.Pointer(buff0))

And maybe specifying:

const maxwidth = 1 << (30 + 10*(^uint(0)>>32&1))

And then changing the buff assignments to:

	buff := (*[maxwidth]byte)(unsafe.Pointer(buff0))

Would be even better.
