    Bug 1386279 - Renovate Linux sandbox file broker handling of access(). r=gcp
    
    1. X_OK is now allowed, and is limited only by the MAY_ACCESS permission.
    
    2. The actual access() syscall is now used, if access is granted by the
    broker policy.  This fixed bug 1382246, which explains the background.
