Unionfs: create new special files only in first branch

When creating a new special file, always create it in the first branch,
which is always writeable, not in the branch which may have a whiteout in
it.  This makes the policy for the creation of new special files consistent
with that of new files/directories, as well as improves efficiency a bit.
