trans/fakeroot: override fshelp_isowner
As of recently, fakeroot would fail to create symlinks:
% fakeroot-hurd ln -s foo a
ln: failed to create symbolic link ‘a’: Operation not permitted
Fix this by overriding fshelp_isowner.
Various netfs functions will call fshelp_isowner to check whether USER
is allowed to do some operation. As fakeroot is not running within
the fakeauth'ed environment, USER contains the real user.
I have no explanation why this ever worked.
* trans/fakeroot.c (fshelp_isowner): New function.
