[422/622] lustre: lov: Correct write_intent end for trunc

Commit Message

From: Patrick Farrell <[e-mail]>

When instantiating a layout, the server interprets the
write intent from the client as the range [start, end), not
including the last byte.

This is correct for writes because the last byte given for
a write is actually 'endpos', the resulting file pointer
position, and so is not included.

However, truncate is specifying a size, not an endpos, so
truncate is [start, size].  To make this work with the
[start, end) processing for write_intents, we have to add
1 to the size when sending a write intent.

Without this, a truncate operation to the first byte of a
new layout component fails silently because the component
is not instantiated.
