  Allow full path in lxc.devices.allow

Some devices like LVM or cryptsetup entries have no stable major/minor, changing between host reboots.
In this case, hardcoded numbers are not usable in config file and there is currently no way to use hook with lxc-device to do the link at guest startup :

    * `pre-start`/`autodev` hook runs in host context but has the guest in stopped state and so lxc-device not usable
    * `start` hook is in running state but runs in guest context and so lxc-device not available

This patch converts fullpath in lxc.devices.allow to current major/minor numbers to address those changing numbers.
