vfs: re-introduce MAY_CHDIR
Currently MAY_ACCESS means that filesystems must check the permissions
right then and not rely on cached results or the results of future
operations on the object.  This can be because of a call to sys_access() or
because of a call to chdir() which needs to check search without relying on
any future operations inside that dir.  I plan to use MAY_ACCESS for other
purposes in the security system, so I split the MAY_ACCESS and the
MAY_CHDIR cases.
