Unionfs: fix readonly nfs2/3 permission handling
In unionfs_permission: NFSv2/3 return EACCES on readonly-exported, locally
readonly-mounted file systems, instead of EROFS like other file systems do.
So we have no choice here but to intercept this and ignore it for NFS
branches marked readonly. Specifically, we avoid using NFS's own "broken"
->permission method, and rely on generic_permission() to do basic checking
for us.
