geo-rep: Fix traceback with symlink metadata sync

While syncing metadata, 'os.chmod', 'os.chown',
'os.utime' should be used without de-reference.
But python supports only 'os.chown' without
de-reference. That's mostly because Linux
doesn't support 'chmod' on symlink file itself
but it does support 'chown'.

So while syncing metadata ops, if it's symlink
we should only sync 'chown' and not do 'chmod'
and 'utime'. It will lead to tracebacks with
errors like EROFS, EPERM, ACCESS, ENOENT.
All the three errors (EPERM, ACCESS, ENOENT)
were handled except EROFS. But the way it was
handled was not fool proof. The operation is
tried and failure was handled based on the errors.
All the errors with symlink file for 'chown',
'utime' had to be passed to safe errors list of
'errno_wrap'. This patch handles it better by
avoiding 'chmod' and 'utime' if it's symlink
file.
