fusefrontend_reverse: workaround ext4 test failure

The extended TestLongnameStat() exposes a pathological case
when run on ext4, as ext4 reuses inode numbers immediately.

This change modifies the test to not delete the files immediately,
so the inode numbers cannot be reused immediately.

Fix for the underlying issue is a TODO.
