Merge branch 'rs/notes-merge-no-toctou' into maint

"git notes merge" had a code to see if a path exists (and fails if
it does) and then open the path for writing (when it doesn't).
Replace it with open with O_EXCL.

* rs/notes-merge-no-toctou:
  notes-merge: use O_EXCL to avoid overwriting existing files
