mount.cifs: use lock/unlock_mtab scheme from util-linux-ng mount prog

The util-linux-ng sources have a good, but rather complex scheme for
locking the mtab before updating it. Mount helpers need to follow the
same scheme. Advisory locking only works if everyone is using the same
locking scheme.

Copy the routines we need from util-linux-ng into a separate source file
and then have mount.cifs and umount.cifs link in this object.

The long term goal is to have these routines in a separate helper
library (libmount). Mount helpers can then dynamically link in that lib.
Until that happens, this should serve as a suitable stopgap solution.
