Draft patch for openat2 changes vs --one-top-level

The patch leverages the existing -C code. In order to do that, every
entry in the wd[] table gets another companion entry in the table that
represents the --one-top-level directory. There is one additional field
in each entry that allows skipping the companion entries if they are not
desired.

The actual directory is created lazily by chdir_do() if needed, as you
requested, to avoid empty "a/foo" after --one-top-level=foo -C a -C b.

The patch "by the way" fixes also extraction of hardlinks with
--one-top-level which currently is broken in the typical case (the
transform is not applied to the target, so the hardlink is wrong).

The patch does not yet handle the --show-transformed case with
--one-top-level that you discussed in another subthread. As a result, two
tests now fail (onetop02.at and onetop04.at). I suppose that this would
be quite easy to fix.

Another issue that I am aware of is that I am not sure whether to call
repair_delayed_set_stat and/or delay_set_stat on the newly created
directories like extract_dir() does (the whole delay_set code is abit
mysterious to me).

Use of --create together with --one-top-level should probably be
forbidden, as unlink.c uses wd[] in a way that will likely break in the
presence of companion entries (the chdir_do call in
flush_deferred_unlinks).
