With the addition of the try_break_lease calls in directory changing operations, allow generic_setlease to hand them out. Write leases on directories are never allowed however, so continue to reject them. For now, there is no API for requesting delegations from userland, so ensure that userland is prevented from acquiring a lease on a directory.
