Add option for autounmount

Even though filesystem notifications aren't implemented for FUSE, I decided to
try my hand at implementing the autounmount feature (#128). I based it on the
EncFS autounmount code, which records filesystem accesses and checks every X
seconds whether it's idled long enough to unmount.

I've tested the feature locally, but I haven't added any tests for this flag.
I also haven't worked with Go before. So please let me know if there's
anything that should be done differently.

One particular concern: I worked from the assumption that the open files table
is unique per-filesystem. If that's not true, I'll need to add an open file
count and associated lock to the Filesystem type instead.
