libselinux: restorecon: pin file to avoid TOCTOU issues

Pin the file to operate on in restorecon_sb() to prevent symlink attacks
in between the label database lookup, the current context query and the
final context write.  Also don't use the file information from
fts_read(3), which might also be out of sync.

Due to querying file information twice, one in fts_read(3) needed for
the cross device check and one on the pinned file descriptor for the
database lookup, there is a slight slowdown:
