dht: fix rename race
If two clients try to rename the same file at the same time, we
sometimes end up with *no file at all* in either the old or new
location. That's kind of bad. The culprit seems to be some overly
aggressive cleanup code. AFAICT, based on today's study of the code,
the intent of the changed section is to remove any linkfile we might
have created before the actual rename. However, what we're removing
might not be our extra link. If we're racing with another client that's
also doing a rename, it might be the only remaining link to the user's
data. The solution, which is good enough to pass this test but almost
certainly still not complete, is to be more selective about when we do
this unlink. Now, we only do it if we know that, at some point, we did
in fact create the link without error (notably ENOENT on the source or
EEXIST on the destination) ourselves.
