Merge branch 'jk/open-dotgitx-with-nofollow'

It does not make sense to make ".gitattributes", ".gitignore" and
".mailmap" symlinks, as they are supposed to be usable from the
object store (think: bare repositories where HEAD:.mailmap etc. are
used).  When these files are symbolic links, we used to read the
contents of the files pointed by them by mistake, which has been
corrected.

* jk/open-dotgitx-with-nofollow:
  mailmap: do not respect symlinks for in-tree .mailmap
  exclude: do not respect symlinks for in-tree .gitignore
  attr: do not respect symlinks for in-tree .gitattributes
  exclude: add flags parameter to add_patterns()
  attr: convert "macro_ok" into a flags field
  add open_nofollow() helper
