Get version string of fuse implementation #65

Open overheadhunter opened 5 years ago

Some FUSE implementations provide a version string. For example osxfuse allows you to get its version as described here. For client applications it might be useful to get this information to avoid incompatibilities.

Could you add such a method, or do you want to keep jnr-fuse strictly limited on fuse.h, i.e. without any "vendor-specific addons"? If the latter is the case, please feel free to reject this feature request. I can easily access osxfuse-specific functions myself (as suggested here), but I want to avoid loading osxfuse twice, since I don't know the drawback of doing so via JNR.
