[PATCH] qsd: Document FUSE exports

[Max Reitz]

Implementing FUSE exports required no changes to the storage daemon, so
we forgot to document them there.  Considering that both NBD and
vhost-user-blk exports are documented in its man page (and NBD exports
in its --help text), we should probably do the same for FUSE.
