Andrew Tridgell b33571a1df daemon/authenticate: open operator-supplied paths refusing planted symlinks
Route the daemon's operator-supplied path opens through
safe_open_no_attacker_symlinks() / a pinned parent dir so a local attacker
cannot plant a symlink at one and redirect the daemon's privileged
read/write: motd, --early-input, lock and --config paths
(clientserver/connection/params); the --password-file and daemon secrets
file, fstat'ing the opened fd (authenticate); and the pid-file parent dir.

Tests: daemon-config-symlink, early-input-symlink, daemon-secrets-file-symlink,
password-file-symlink, daemon-module-chdir-symlink.
