When looking up the lowercase equivalent of a Unicode character in
ntfs_fix_file_name, no byte swapping was performed on the ntfschar used
as index into the 'locase' array. This would lead to very strange
results on big-endian systems.
Windows requires non-Microsoft reparse points (identified by having bit
31 of the reparse tag clear) to have a 16-byte GUID following the regular
reparse point header. This GUID is not, and cannot, be included in the
"reparse data length" field.

When translating Windows-type symlinks to Linux ones, the directory
separator has to be changed from '\' to '/'. The change was wrong
for multiple "..\" and ".\"
Replace the obsolete definition of reparse tags in layout.h by the
current definitions from msdn, and use them in reparse.c instead of
redefining them.
When the target of a junction or a Windows-type symlink references another
junction or symlink, the search for the full path on the current partition
and its translation for case-sensitive access is interrupted. The target can
now be dereferenced, provided the end of the path needed no translation.
When ignore_case is set, the file names are returned lower-case in
readdir() in order to make file name completions possible. This patch
does the same for junction points to avoid directory locks when used
with non-matching names.
