log stats 0, and pardes re-pins cloud9 whose 9ns opens such a file direct and nonseekable: fs.md's follow recipe with cat works through a mount

The log stated the length an open would freeze, a length a mount's
kernel could take as its end, and a splicing cat read it from the
kernel's offset. log now stats 0, as the other streams and generated
views do, and the re-pinned cloud9's 9ns opens any file stating 0
FOPEN_DIRECT_IO | FOPEN_NONSEEKABLE. A look at such a file (the mounted
index) reads a regular file that will not seek as a stream rather than
refusing it as a pipe. selfmount runs the recipe, exec 3<>log; echo
follow >&3; cat <&3, through the mount and hears a record made after it
started.
