smb/client: preserve open info type across compound queries
contains_posix_file_info describes the metadata stored in the
fi/posix_fi union. GET_REPARSE and QUERY_WSL_EA do not update that
union, so clearing the flag while processing those responses can make
POSIX metadata look like FILE_ALL_INFORMATION.
Set the flag when CREATE or a validated query response actually
populates the union, and leave it unchanged for auxiliary compound
operations. This also avoids changing the type when a query fails
before copying any metadata.
The issue can be reproduced against a Samba server with SMB3 UNIX
extensions enabled:
mount -t cifs //<server>/<share> /mnt/cifs \
-o vers=3.1.1,posix,reparse=nfs,actimeo=0
mkfifo /mnt/cifs/test-fifo
umount /mnt/cifs
mount -t cifs //<server>/<share> /mnt/cifs \
-o vers=3.1.1,posix,reparse=nfs,actimeo=0
stat -c '%F %s' /mnt/cifs/test-fifo
Before this change, stat reports "fifo 1024" although the server-side
EOF is zero. After this change, it reports "fifo 0".
