GCSF's full name #15

Please add an explanation what "GCSF" stands for to the readme.

From Hacker News:

GCSF stands for "Google Conduce Sistem de Fișiere" -- a (bad) word-by-word Romanian translation of "Google Drive File System".

I noticed this issue as well, and since the project is still only 2 months young, I think there's still a window of opportunity to change the project name to something more intuitive, for example gdfs (Google Drive File System). It's worth mentioning that suffix fs is a de facto standard for all kind of file systems, including FUSE (gocryptfs, gopherfs, avfs, btfs etc. etc.)

gdfs is already there. Should be something else.

gdvfs -> Google Drive Virtual File System?

I would like to continue using GCSF for the time being, unless a better alternative shows up.
