arbitraryfilecontext: skip the cmp fast path if any side is a symlink

`filecmp` follows symlinks by default, which a `filectx.cmp()` call should not
be doing as it should only compare the  requested entry. After this patch, only
the contexts' data are compared, which is the correct contract.

This is a corrected version of D1122.
