FS-Cache: Add cache tag handling
Implement two features of FS-Cache: (1) The ability to request and release cache tags - names by which a cache may be known to a netfs, and thus selected for use. (2) An internal function by which a cache is selected by consulting the netfs, if the netfs wishes to be consulted.
