7.1 Filesystem implementation types

Each filesystem can be `import' (read) type, `export' (write) type or both. Typical implementations support both types of operation, although when NTFS will be implemented, it will certainly be only `import' type as the structure is undocumented and any write is impossible. Function pointers specific to the mode in struct fs_calls should be left NULL to signify the mode as unsupported.
