Ken Brown 883abd9d7d Cygwin: fchmodat: add limited support for AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW 
Allow fchmodat with the AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW flag to succeed on
non-symlinks.  Previously it always failed, as it does on Linux.  But
POSIX permits it to succeed on non-symlinks even if it fails on
symlinks.

The reason for following POSIX rather than Linux is to make gnulib
report that fchmodat works on Cygwin.  This improves the efficiency of
packages like GNU tar that use gnulib's fchmodat module.  Previously
such packages would use a gnulib replacement for fchmodat on Cygwin.
