This modifies the error checks in VFS::open after the call to
resolve_path to ignore a null parent custody if there is no error, as
this is expected when the path to resolve points to "/". Rather, a null
parent custody only constitutes an error if it is accompanied by ENOENT.
This behavior is documented in the VFS::resolve_path_without_veil
method.
To accompany this change, the order of the error checks have been
changed to more naturally fit the new logic.
