Revert "checkpath: use O_PATH when available"

This reverts commit 2af0cedd59.

After speaking with Luis Ressel on the Gentoo selinux team, I am reverting
this commit for the following reasons:

- Luis told me that he feels this is not the solution we need to address
  the concern with checkpath; I will be working with him on another
  solution.

- There are concerns about the way the path variable was handled
  and the assert() call.
  The path variable should be dynamically allocated using xasprintf
  instead of defining a length at compile time. This would eliminate the
  need for the assert() call.

- It introduces the definition of _GNU_SOURCE which makes it
  easier to introduce portability concerns in the future (see #262).
