Subject: liveupdate: luo_file: Add internal APIs for file preservation
Date: Sat, 22 Nov 2025 17:23:47 -0500

The core liveupdate mechanism allows userspace to preserve file
descriptors.  However, kernel subsystems often manage struct file objects
directly and need to participate in the preservation process
programmatically without relying solely on userspace interaction.
