Volume awareness

This PR introduces a robust volume management system for Spacedrive, enabling the application to track and interact with storage volumes across different platforms.

Features

• Cross-platform volume detection for Linux, macOS, and Windows
• Intelligent handling of platform-specific volume types (e.g., APFS volumes on macOS)
• Real-time volume monitoring with watchers for mount/unmount events
• Volume fingerprinting for consistent identification across sessions
• Speed testing capabilities for volume performance metrics
• Database integration for persisting volume metadata
• Event system for volume state changes
• Support for all major filesystem types (NTFS, FAT32, EXT4, APFS, etc.)

Key Technical Details

• Actor-based architecture for thread-safe state management
• Asynchronous operation using Tokio
• Efficient memory usage with Arc/RwLock for shared state
• Platform-specific volume detection using sysinfo and native APIs
• Mount point aggregation for complex volumes (e.g., macOS APFS)
• Error handling with custom error types and proper propagation
• Event broadcasting system for real-time updates
• Integration with Prisma for database operations

Usage Example

// Create volume manager
let ctx = VolumeManagerContext {
    device_id: device_id.into(),
    library_event_tx: libraries.rx.clone(),
};
let (volumes, _actor) = create_volume_manager(ctx).await?;

// List available volumes
let system_volumes = volumes.list_system_volumes().await?;
