openat2: introduce EFTYPE error code
Introduce a new error code EFTYPE for wrong file type operations. EFTYPE is already used in BSD systems like FreeBSD and macOS. This will be used by the upcoming OPENAT2_REGULAR flag support to return a specific error when a path doesn't refer to a regular file.
