ovl: fix regression caused by lookup helpers API changes
The lookup helpers API was changed by merge of vfs-6.16-rc1.async.dir to
pass a non-const qstr pointer argument to lookup_one*() helpers.
All of the callers of this API were changed to pass a pointer to temp
copy of qstr, except overlays that was passing a const pointer to
dentry->d_name that was changed to pass a non-const copy instead
when doing a lookup in lower layer which is not the fs of said dentry.
This wrong use of the API caused a regression in fstest overlay/012.
Fix the regression by making a non-const copy of dentry->d_name prior
to calling the lookup API, but the API should be fixed to not allow this
class of bugs.
