root: should Root::resolve_nofollow actually be flipped to Root::resolve_follow? #271

Description

@cyphar

All of our internal APIs make the assumption that the more common case is that we do not want to follow trailing symlinks. This is true for how we've implemented things so far, but since libpathrs handles such symlinks safely, maybe having follow-trailing be the default behaviour is more favourable?
