Radu Berinde 7ae119d654 posix: add AbsolutePaths option for embedding without chdir
Problem:
- `posix.New` calls `os.Chdir(rootdir)` and uses cwd-relative paths for
  every bucket and object. That is the cheapest way to address files, but
  the cwd is process-wide: embedding the gateway (`embedgw`) silently moves
  the host program's cwd. In particular, Go unit tests that embed the
  gateway can no longer read their test data files by relative path.

Change:
- New `PosixOpts.AbsolutePaths`. When set, `New` leaves the working
  directory alone and builds every path from the absolute root; a relative
  `VersioningDir`/`SideCarDir` is then resolved against the working
  directory rather than the root. The default is unchanged: chdir and
  relative paths.
- All bucket and object paths go through new `BucketPath`/`ObjectPath`,
  which return the name as-is by default and prefix the root with
  `AbsolutePaths`. An absolute "bucket" (the versioning directory
  substitution) is passed through unchanged.
- `tmpfile` records the bucket directory path so `link()` and its fallbacks
  use the same addressing; `ListBuckets` reads the root through the same
  helper.
- `meta.XattrMeta` needs the same root with `AbsolutePaths`. New
  `meta.RootDirSetter` interface; `posix.New` calls `WithRootDir` on
  storers that implement it in that mode. A zero `XattrMeta` keeps
  resolving against the cwd. `SideCar`/`NoMeta` unchanged. A type that
  embeds `XattrMeta` inherits a `WithRootDir` that returns a bare
  `XattrMeta`, so it needs its own (documented on `RootDirSetter`).
- `DeleteObject` (directory object), `ListParts`, and `UploadPartCopy`
  passed filesystem paths where the metadata API expects bucket/object
  names; they now pass names, so the sidecar layout is unchanged in both
  modes.
- Windows `handleParentDirError` walks up until `filepath.Dir` is a fixed
  point, which works for relative and absolute paths.
- scoutfs used cwd-relative bucket/object paths in `CreateBucket`,
  `GetObject`, `HeadObject`, `RestoreObject` and the glacier walk; they now
  go through `BucketPath`/`ObjectPath`. `scoutfs.New` resolves `rootdir`
  before `posix.New` so a relative root no longer reopens `rootdir/rootdir`
  after the chdir.
- `isBucketValid` unconditionally rejects names that do not denote a single
  entry under the root: `""`, `.`, `..`, names containing a path separator,
  and absolute paths. `XattrMeta` rejects `""`, `.` and `..` likewise.
  With relative paths `os.Stat("")` and `os.RemoveAll(".")` failed by
  accident; with absolute paths they would act on the root directory itself
  (reachable with strict bucket names disabled, or via the admin
  `change-bucket-owner` endpoint which does not validate `bucket`).
- scoutfs had its own `isBucketValid` whose `validateBucketName` flag was
  never set, so it accepted everything. It now delegates to the new exported
  `Posix.IsBucketValid`.
- `UploadPartCopy` did not validate the copy source's bucket name (unlike
  `CopyObject`); it does now.
- `New` opens the root after validating the versioning and sidecar
  directories, so those error paths no longer leak the root handle. The
  chdir still happens first, so a relative directory resolves against the
  root as before.

Tests:
- New `TestDefaultModeChangesWorkingDirectory` documents the default.
- New `TestRootDirIndependentOfWorkingDirectory`: `AbsolutePaths` with a
  relative root from an unrelated cwd, checks cwd is untouched and that
  put/get/list/delete, copy, multipart upload with checksums and part copy,
  directory-object delete, and invalid bucket names behave correctly under
  the root, for both metadata storers.
- New `TestVersioningDirIndependentOfWorkingDirectory`: same setup with a
  relative versioning directory; versions land there and not under the
  root or cwd.
- New `TestXattrMetaPath` covers cwd-relative and root resolution, absolute
  pass-through and the rejected names.
- New `BenchmarkPosix*` benchmarks (small-object head/get/put/list, both
  storers, both path modes). The default mode matches `main` within noise
  on both Linux and macOS. `AbsolutePaths` costs about 0.2µs (Linux) to
  0.4µs (macOS) per path lookup; on Linux (arm64 VM, overlayfs) that is
  +2-3% on PutObject and +10-27% on the metadata-heavy small-object
  HeadObject/GetObject/ListObjectsV2 with xattr metadata, which is why it
  is opt-in.
