What's new in this version:

- Add support for extended access modes. When the FUSE_CAP_ACCESS_EXTENDED capability bit is set, the following more granular access modes are passed to the access() callback in addition to the standard R_OK, W_OK and X_OK modes.
- Add fair_locking mount option. By default, macFUSE uses an unfair locking mechanism to ensure file system consistency. This can lead to issues when the file system is processing an extreme amount of operations in parallel. In this case, some file system operations might be delayed too long for real-time tasks. The fair_locking option ensures that file system operations are processed fairly. Fair locking comes a little performance overhead compared to unfair locking, but it might be the better option when dealing with high pressure situations.
- Address kernel panic on macOS 14 when a macFUSE volume is shared over SMB
