Apply a better fix to mdunlinkfork().
Replace the stopgap fix I made in 0e758ae with a cleaner one. The real problem with 4ab5dae is that it contorted this function's logic substantially, by introducing a third code path that required different behavior in the function's main loop. That seems quite unnecessary on closer inspection: the new IsBinaryUpgrade case can just share the behavior of the other immediate-unlink cases. Hence, revert 4ab5dae and most of 0e758ae (keeping the latter's save/restore errno fix), and add IsBinaryUpgrade to the set of conditions tested to choose immediate unlink. Also fix some additional places with sloppy handling of errno, to ensure we have an invariant that we always continue processing after any non-ENOENT failure of do_truncate. I doubt that that's fixing any bug of field importance, so I don't feel it necessary to back-patch; but we might as well get it right while we're here. Also improve the comments, which had drifted a bit from what the code actually does, and neglected to mention some important considerations. Back-patch to v15, not because this is fixing any bug but because it doesn't seem like a good idea for v15's mdunlinkfork logic to be significantly different from both v14 and v16.
