Add a new O_BENEATH_ONLY flag for openat(2) which restricts the
provided path, rejecting (with -EACCES) paths that are not beneath
the provided dfd.  In particular, reject:
 - paths that contain .. components
 - paths that begin with /
 - symlinks that have paths as above.

How is this implemented in FreeBSD?  I can't find any references to
O_BENEATH_ONLY except for your patchset.
