c23410a886927bab8ca5e80b08af6a56faeb330d unix: check Fchmodat flags parameter on Linux
Currently Linux' fchmodat(2) syscall implementation doesn't support the
flags parameter (though it might in future versions [1]). Fchmodat in
x/sys/unix takes the parameter and (wrongly) passes it on to the syscall
which will ignore it.
According to the POSIX.1-2008 manual page [2], AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW is
the only valid value for the flags parameter and EOPNOTSUPP should be
returned in case changing the mode of a symbolic link is not supported
by the underlying system. EINVAL should be returned for any other value
of the flags parameter.

Change the Fchmodat implementation accordingly and also add the
corresponding test.
Fixes golang/go#20130
