9pfs: deprecate handle backend
This backend raise some concerns:
- doesn't support symlinks
- fails +100 tests in the PJD POSIX file system test suite [1]
- requires the QEMU process to run with the CAP_DAC_READ_SEARCH
capability, which isn't recommended for security reasons
This backend should not be used and wil be removed. The 'local'
backend is the recommended alternative.
