Ondřej Surý 6082274450 Stop isc_file_safecreate from following symlinks
The function existence-checked the target with stat() and then opened
the same path without O_NOFOLLOW, so a symlink at the target path
passed the regular-file test against the link's destination and the
open() that followed truncated and wrote through the link.
rndc-confgen -a is typically run as root and writes the keyfile under
a directory that service accounts may have write access to, so a stray
symlink there would silently redirect the truncate, fchown, and
overwrite to whatever file the link pointed at.

Switch the existence check to lstat() and use S_ISREG() so a symlink's
S_IFLNK mode is detected directly (a plain bitmask of S_IFREG matches
both, since S_IFLNK shares its high bit). Add O_NOFOLLOW to both
open() flag sets to close the lstat/open TOCTOU window. Hardening
against unexpected symlinks on intermediate path components is out of
scope.
