 - sha1_file: stop opening files with O_NOATIME

 - git_open(): untangle possible NOATIME and CLOEXEC interactions

 The codeflow of setting NOATIME and CLOEXEC on file descriptors Git
 opens has been simplified.

This branch (in particular, the "use fcntl(2)" one) breaks the build on
Windows. Until this breakage is resolved, I won't be able to see (nor
report) any test breakages in `pu`.

Thanks for a heads-up.  Anything in 'pu' won't be of importance
until 2.11 final, so please don't worry too much about it.  Instead
please do make sure the tip of 'master' is OK.

Having said that, an incremental update or replacement to help
preparing it for post 2.11 final is appreciated ;-)

FYI, I may be offline for a few days.
