A symlink and its parent could have different owners in the filesystem can both get mapped to INVALID_UID, which may result in following a symlink when this would not have otherwise been permitted when protected symlinks are enabled. Add a new helper function, uid_valid_eq(), and use this to validate that the ids in may_follow_link() are both equal and valid. Also add an equivalent helper for gids, which is currently unused.
