futex: get_futex_key, get_key_refs and drop_key_refs
lguest uses the convenient futex infrastructure for inter-domain I/O, so expose get_futex_key, get_key_refs (renamed get_futex_key_refs) and drop_key_refs (renamed drop_futex_key_refs). Also means we need to expose the union that these use. No code changes.
