fs: add ksys_chdir() helper; remove in-kernel calls to sys_chdir()

Using this helper allows us to avoid the in-kernel calls to the sys_chdir()
syscall. The ksys_ prefix denotes that this function is meant as a drop-in
replacement for the syscall. In particular, it uses the same calling
convention as sys_chdir().

This patch is part of a series which removes in-kernel calls to syscalls.
On this basis, the syscall entry path can be streamlined. For details, see
