Merge remote-tracking branch 'remotes/cschoenebeck/tags/pull-9p-20220307' into staging

9pfs: introduce macOS host support and cleanup

* Add support for Darwin (a.k.a. macOS) hosts.

* Code cleanup (move qemu_dirent_dup() from osdep -> 9p-util).

* API doc cleanup (convert Doxygen -> kerneldoc format).
