ovl: set d->is_dir and d->opaque for last path element

Certain properties in ovl_lookup_data should be set only for the last
element of the path. IOW, if we are calling ovl_lookup_single() for an
absolute redirect, then d->is_dir and d->opaque do not make much sense
for intermediate path elements. Instead set them only if dentry being
lookup is last path element.

As of now we do not seem to be making use of d->opaque if it is set for
a path/dentry in lower. But just define the semantics so that future code
can make use of this assumption.
