fs_rom "follows" files

Thanks for the clarification. The question came up (but is only loosely
coupled) with the implementation and testing of file system watch for
`lx_fs`.

Intuitively, I would have expected that `fs_rom` always provides the
content of the file with the configured file name. If there's no file
with that name anymore (because it has been moved or deleted), the ROM
would be empty until there is the same (moved back), or another file
with the specified file name.

It more or less boils down to the question whether `fs_rom` is "bound"
to a file name or a file handle. But I guess the later is the more
generally applicable (and agreed upon) definition - which is fine with me ;)

Cheers,
Roman
