hw/9pfs: use O_NOFOLLOW for mapped readlink operation

With mapped security models like mapped-xattr and mapped-file, we save the
symlink target as file contents. Now if we ever expose a normal directory
with mapped security model and find real symlinks in export path, never
follow them and return proper error.
