Jakob Unterwurzacher 9ec9d0c49c syscallcompat: untangle OpenNofollow and rename to OpenDirNofollow
The function used to do two things:

1) Walk the directory tree in a manner safe from symlink attacks
2) Open the final component in the mode requested by the caller

This change drops (2), which was only used once, and lets the caller
handle it. This simplifies the function and makes it fit for reuse in
forward mode in openBackingPath(), and for using O_PATH on Linux.
