Bug 1317863

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1311146 +++

Description of problem:
***********************
glfs_dup() functionality is currently broken in glusterfs.


Steps to Reproduce: 
*******************
Code snippet from libgfapi-python tests:

    f = File(self.vol.open("dune", os.O_CREAT | os.O_EXCL | os.O_RDWR))
    f.write("I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer.")
    fdup = f.dup()
    self.assertTrue(isinstance(fdup, File))
    f.close()
    ret = fdup.lseek(0, os.SEEK_SET)
    self.assertEqual(ret, 0)


Actual results:
***************
ERROR: test_write_file_dup_lseek_read (test.functional.libgfapi-python-tests.FileOpsTest)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/root/src/libgfapi-python/test/functional/libgfapi-python-tests.py", line 236, in test_write_file_dup_lseek_read
    ret = fdup.lseek(0, os.SEEK_SET)
  File "/root/src/libgfapi-python/gluster/gfapi.py", line 306, in lseek
    raise OSError(err, os.strerror(err))
OSError: [Errno 9] Bad file descriptor


Expected results:
*****************
lseek() should succeed.


Additional information
**********************
This change (http://review.gluster.org/13340) disallows any operation on duplicate once the original fd is closed.

Seems like a deep copy of original fd instance should be done.

glfs_dup is completely broken. Current behavior is not in accordance with POSIX dup (http://linux.die.net/man/2/dup)

http://review.gluster.org/13666 only addresses are very small subset of the problem. glfs_dup needs to be re-written to fix the broken behavior. Therefore not changing the state of the bug as of now.

    gfapi: preserve glfd state during glfs_dup
    
    Following patch introduced a new state variable in glfd
    to track the current status of the fd.
    http://review.gluster.org/13340/
    
    But this state was not copied in glfd_dup function.
