The check-file-access.pl script is used to match access list
generated by virtestmock against whitelisted rules stored in
file_access_whitelist.txt. So far the rules are in form:
$path: $progname: $testname
This is not sufficient because the rule does not take into
account 'action' that caused $path to appear in the list of
accessed files. After this commit the rule can be in new form:
$path: $action: $progname: $testname
where $action is one from ("open", "fopen", "access", "stat",
"lstat", "connect"). This way the white list can be fine tuned to
allow say access() but not connect().

This is particularly useful on operating systems that don't ship
Perl as part of the base system (eg. FreeBSD) while still working
just as well as it did before on Linux.
In one case (src/rpc/genprotocol.pl) the interpreter path was
missing altogether.

This script will check output generated by virtestmock against a
white list. All non matching records found are printed out. So
far, the white list is rather sparse at the moment.
This test should be ran only after all other tests finished, and
should cleanup the temporary file before their execution. Because
I'm unable to reflect these requirements in Makefile.am
correctly, I've introduced new target 'check-access' under which
this test is available.
