I've started picking up v9fs again for something work related, but set
out to first fix my test infrastructure.  Being lazy, I'm having
Cursor do the test infrastructure rework for me -- it is still a work
in progress, but I think it's already handling the old tests and
starting to add new ones.  I need to suck in more of the diod testing
framework as well so that I have full coverage there, and then I'm
going to look at adding hugelgupf/9p and go9p.

As part of this, I should be able to fix it for nightly builds and/or
at least tracking upstream with regression tests across the multiple
servers.

Currently running in the main branch of github.com/v9fs/test

Fortunately for everyone I'm not tilting at the caching stuff quite
yet, I'm more interested in the synthetic file system angle.  So don't
worry about me breaking everything (yet).
