bug fix: retry lookup for different silly-renamed files
When we have to copyup an open-but-unlinked file, we have to give it a
temporary name, similar to NFS's silly-renamed files. So we generate
temporary file names until we find one that doesn't exist, and use it. The
code had a bug where if the silly-renamed file name already existed, Unionfs
would oops upon copyup to that temp name.
