Getting the raw fd of loop control can be neccecary because the `next_free` and `attach` operation is (unfortunately) not atomic. The fd can be used to acquire a `flock`. Add `IntoRawFd` for LoopDevice.
Getting the `Metadata` is usefull to access the major/minor number of the device that is needed when using the loopdev in combination with device-mapper.
