fusefrontend: use OpenDirNofollow in openBackingDir

Rename openBackingPath to openBackingDir and use OpenDirNofollow
to be safe against symlink races. Note that openBackingDir is
not used in several important code paths like Create().

But it is used in Unlink, and the performance impact in the RM benchmark
to be acceptable:
