[PATCH v2 1/3] virtiofsd: drop CAP_DAC_READ_SEARCH

[Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com>]

virtiofsd does not need CAP_DAC_READ_SEARCH because it already has
the more powerful CAP_DAC_OVERRIDE. Drop it from the list of
capabilities.

This is important because container runtimes may not include
CAP_DAC_READ_SEARCH by default. This patch allows virtiofsd to reduce
its capabilities when running inside a Docker container.

Note that CAP_DAC_READ_SEARCH may be necessary again in the future if
virtiofsd starts using open_by_handle_at(2).
