smb/client: fix security flag calculation when setting security descriptors

In id_mode_to_cifs_acl(), aclflag was initialized to CIFS_ACL_DACL by default.
This forced the client to request setting the DACL even when only an ownership
(chown) or group (chgrp) change was being performed.

Let build_sec_desc() do the proper flag calculation by initializing aclflag
to 0. build_sec_desc() sets the appropriate bits (CIFS_ACL_OWNER, CIFS_ACL_GROUP,
or CIFS_ACL_DACL) depending on what actually changed. During ownership transfer,
CIFS_ACL_DACL is only set if replace_sids_and_copy_aces() actually replaces the
SIDs inside any of the DACL's ACEs.

If build_sec_desc() results in aclflag being 0 (meaning no changes were mapped),
exit early to avoid sending an empty security descriptor update to the server.
