[PATCH openbmc v7 14/15] initfs: update: Sanitize whitelist directory entries

[OpenBMC Patches]

From: Milton Miller <miltonm at us.ibm.com>

Repeatedly strip trailing "/" and "/." from whitelist entries
and fail if an entry includes "/../", ends with "/..", or doesn't
start with a "/".  Also use the entries quoted to avoid any glob.

It was noticed the save code was saving directories that ended
in "/" into a subdirectory of the last component name.  This was
traced the the code creating the directory just stripping the last
"/" and then copying to the directory.

Choose to sanitize the entry where possible for ease of use verses
a small performance penalty.
