#4489: Fix usage of fd-based functions to new api introduced earlier today
Also add an explicit test for safe implementation usage on supported platforms. As a side effect, this commit adds a module-level attribute 'rmtree_is_safe' which offers introspection whether the current rmtree implementation is safe against symlink attacks.
