Darwin does not support mknodat. However, to avoid race conditions
with later setting the permissions, we must avoid using mknod on
the full path instead. We could try to fchdir, but that would cause
problems if multiple threads try to call mknodat at the same time.
However, luckily there is a solution: Darwin includes a function
that sets the cwd for the current thread only.
This should suffice to use mknod safely.

This function (pthread_fchdir_np) is protected by a check in
meson in a patch later in tihs series.

I think this belong to "osdep.h" & os-posix.c.
