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.
