This patch series adds info documentation for faccessat, mkdirat, renameat,
unlinkat, and utimensat (along with the related futimens).

They are marked AC-Unsafe and AS-Unsafe since they have not been audited for
these properties.

v1: https://sourceware.org/pipermail/libc-alpha/2024-December/162779.html

Changes in v2:
 * Address Florian's comments
   (https://sourceware.org/pipermail/libc-alpha/2024-December/162838.html):
 * Clarify flags in the "Descriptor-Relative Access" section
 * Mention that the default behaviour of faccessat derives from access
 * Mention that faccessat might work incorrectly on older kernels
