Subject: wrapper: NetBSD gives EFTYPE and FreeBSD gives EMFILE where POSIX uses ELOOP

wrapper: NetBSD gives EFTYPE and FreeBSD gives EMFILE where POSIX uses ELOOP

As documented on NetBSD's man page, open with the O_NOFOLLOW flag and a
symlink returns -1 and sets errno to EFTYPE which differs from POSIX.

This patch fixes the following test failure:

    -error: packed-refs: badRefFiletype: not a regular file but a symlink
    +error: unable to open '.git/packed-refs': Inappropriate file type or format
    not ok 12 - the filetype of packed-refs should be checked

FreeBSD has the same issue for EMLINK instead of EFTYPE.

This portability issue was introduced in cfea2f2da8 (packed-backend:
check whether the "packed-refs" is regular file, 2025-02-28)
