Translate a file name, following all symlinks. Upon return, if `do_retry` is
`FS_RETRY_MAGICAL` then `retry_name` specifies what to do, the list of
possibilities is documented in `<hurd/hurd_types.h>`; if `FS_RETRY_REAUTH`,
then `result` should be reauthenticated before being used. If `retry_name` is
the empty string and the retry type is `FS_RETRY_NORMAL`, then no further
[[`dir_lookup`|dir_lookup]] calls are required; `result` is the port to use.
Otherwise the [[`dir_lookup`|dir_lookup]] call should be repeated, sent to
`result` (or the reauthenticated port) with `retry_name` passed for
`file_name`. This call is required to be supported by all files (even
non-directories) if the filename is null, and should function in that case as a
re-open of the file.
