cf-serverd now stats file every read on network transmission

Previously the file was stat'ed every N read to detect if file changes during transmission. The reason for limiting the calls to stat is probably to make the code more efficient. However, there are reasons to believe that the bug experienced in ENT-12033 is attributed to filechanges during transmission. Hence, I'm changing the code to do this for every read, as it better to be safe than fast. Ticket: None Changelog: None Signed-off-by: Lars Erik Wik <[email protected]>
