Add chmod builtin



Previously in #zsh "so sad that there is no zf_chmod". So here we are.

Since AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW isn't implemented for some fchmodat
implementations (and modifying the mode of a symlink is usually
nonsensical), drop the -h that chgrp/chown support.

I realize Doc/Zsh/mod_files.yo uses behaviour while _chmod uses
behavior. I just matched the zf_chown docs and _chown.
