[PATCHv2 07/33] storage: Add support for access to files using provided uid/gid

[Peter Krempa <pkrempa@xxxxxxxxxx>]

To allow using the storage driver APIs to access files on various
storage sources in an universal fashion possibly on storage such as nfs
with root squash we'll need to store the desired uid/gid in the
metadata.

Add new initialisation API that will store the desired uid/gid and a
wrapper for the current use. Additionally add docs for the two APIs.
