Be more verbose about error conditions when trying to load the macFUSE kernel extension at the end of the installation process.

In case a different version of the kernel extension is currently in use, display an “Unmount” button to unmount FUSE volumes right from the installer, so that the newly installed version of the kernel extension can be loaded.
Add kernel extension loader actions “check” and “unload”.
- Call load_macfuse with the -c or --check option to check whether the installed kernel extension is currently loaded. Returns ENOENT in case the kernel extension is not loaded and EINVAL in case a different version of the kernel extension is currently loaded.
- To unload the kernel extension call load_macfuse with the -u or --unload option. Returns EBUSY in case the kernel extension cannot be unloaded.
Wake up all threads waiting for new FUSE messages when the volume is unmounted or marked as dead. For details see osxfuse/osxfuse#974.
