Checkpoint/restart file owner, file-locks and file-lease information.

See Documentation/checkpoint/file-locks added by patch 17/17 for design
and file-system consistency requirements.

Changelog[v4]:

	- [Oren Laadan, Steven Whitehouse]: Document design and fs consistency
	  requirements.
	- [Oren Laadan]: For consistency with other such objects, replace
	  the "marker lock" checkpoint with a checkpoint of a count of the
	  file-locks before the first file-lock of each file.

Changelog[v3]:
	- Broke-up C/R of file-leases patches into smaller patches and included
	  them in this set.
	- Addressed comments from Jamie Lokier, Oren Laadan with help from
	  John Stultz on the computation of time offsets.
