In order to be robust against symlink attacks (i.e. make a document for a path, then replace it with a symlink somewhere else and have the portal read that instead) we store the parent dev/ino when we create the document id and always verify that (atomically with the *at syscalls) on each use. Also, we pass O_PATH fds when creating documents, as it allows us to be a bit safer. For instance we can verify that the fd is a O_PATH fd before doing any ops on it, and it makes it possible to avoid other symlink trickery. Also, we drop the double add methods, and just use the O_PATH version.
