Subject: [PATCH] Never follow symlinks when setting file flags on Linux

When opening a file descriptor to set file flags on linux, ensure
no symbolic links are followed. This fixes the case when an archive
contains a directory entry followed by a symlink entry with the same
path. The fixup code would modify file flags of the symlink target.
