[Libguestfs] [nbdkit PATCH v3 13/15] null: Wire up FUA flag support
Since the null plugin already does nothing during writes, it can be
argued that those writes have already landed on persistent storage
(we know that we will read back zeros without any further delays).
Instead of advertising that the client cannot flush or FUA, we can
enable a few more callbacks to get instant native FUA support.
