These are very thin wrappers around the existing partialLookupInRoot and
doProcSelfMagiclink infrastructure to allow user to get a much safer API
for operating on paths than SecureJoin. In principle, with very careful
usage, these operations should be sufficient to make any program safe
against races.
In theory we could disable the symlink stack when doing OpenInRoot
(because the symlink stack is only relevant for partial lookups), but
for now we'll just keep the codepaths the same. Also, add a note to
SecureJoin to tell users that you should probably use OpenInRoot if you
can.
This API is based on the libpathrs base API.
Closes #12
