Because libvirt_lxc create a thread to mount fuse filesystem.
and then libvirt_lxc will try to access the fuse filesystem.

Without waiting,libvirt_lxc may access fuse before it is mounted.

And I can't find a better way to make accessing fuse after the fuse
being mounted,because fuse_main will return until fuse being unmounted,so
I don't know how to pass message to tell libvirt_lxc whether the fuse is
mounted success.

Thanks for your review.
