[RFC PATCH v3 4/8] selftests/fuse: factor-out test fixture setup/teardown

From: Luis Henriques

Date: Fri Sep 04 2026 - 06:48:49 EST


In order to reduce new tests setup/teardown code duplication, factor-out
these functions from the existing acl_cache test into a new fuse_common.c
file that can be reused in other tests.
