erofs: impersonate the opener's credentials when accessing backing file
Previously, file operations on a file-backed mount used the current process' credentials to access the backing FD. Attempting to do so on Android lead to SELinux denials, as ACL rules on the backing file (e.g. /system/apex/foo.apex) is restricted to a small set of process. Arguably, this error is redundant and leaking implementation details, as access to files on a mount is already ACL'ed by path. Instead, override to use the opener's cred when accessing the backing file. This makes the behavior similar to a loop-backed mount, which uses kworker cred when accessing the backing file and does not cause SELinux denials.
