This patch makes use of the temp file descriptor in smart_rename
rather than reopening the file. I don't believe there is a security
issue in reopening the file, but this way is one less directory
operation. The patch also attempts to preserve S_ISUID and S_ISGID.

Renaming over existing files needs additional care to restore
permissions and ownership, which may not always succeed.
Additionally, other properties of the file such as extended attributes
may be lost, making the operation flaky.
For predictable results, resort to rename() only if the file does not
exist, otherwise copy the file contents into the existing file. This
ensures that no additional tricks are needed to retain file
properties.
This also allows dropping of the redundant set_times on the tmpfile in
objcopy/strip since now we no longer rename over existing files.

smart_rename is capable of handling symlinks by copying and it also
tries to preserve ownership and permissions of files when they're
overwritten during the rename. This is useful in objcopy where the
file properties need to be preserved.
However because smart_rename does this using file names, it leaves a
race window between renames and permission fixes. This change removes
this race window by using file descriptors from the original BFDs that
were used to manipulate these files wherever possible.
The file that is to be renamed is also passed as a file descriptor so
that we use fchown/fchmod on the file descriptor, thus making sure
that we only modify the file we have opened to write. Further, in
case the file is to be overwritten (as is the case in ar or objcopy),
the permissions that need to be restored are taken from the file
descriptor that was opened for input so that integrity of the file
status is maintained all the way through to the rename.
