fdutimensat: drop atflag validation
* lib/fdutimensat.c (fdutimensat): Allow AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW even
with valid fd, to close a race scenario where futimens is
unsupported and FILE was replaced by a symlink.
* tests/test-fdutimensat.c (do_fdutimens, main): Adjust test
accordingly.
Suggested by Paul Eggert.
