Subject: acl: Fix WALK_TREE_RECURSIVE for the WALK_TREE_DEREFERENCE case

getfacl.c calls walk_tree() with WALK_TREE_DEREFERENCE.  This causes a stat()
of symlinks which in turn causes S_ISDIR(st.st_mode) to be true on symlinks.

This causes getfacl -P to return the contents of symlinks...

e.g.

$ mkdir -p test/sub
$ mkdir test/link
$ touch test/link/file
$ ln -s `pwd`/test/link test/sub/link
$ getfacl -P -R test/sub

# file: test/sub
# owner: philips
# group: users
user::rwx
group::r-x
other::r-x

# file: test/sub/link/file
# owner: philips
# group: users
user::rw-
group::r--
other::r--

After the fix:

$ getfacl -R -P test/sub/
# file: test/sub/
# owner: philips
# group: users
user::rwx
group::r-x
other::r-x
