Description of problem:
$subject

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
-Create 1x2 replica, fuse mount it
-mkdir fuse_mount/d1
-mkdir fuse_mount/d1/dir
-mkdir fuse_mount/d2
-kill one brick and rename the dir: `mv fuse_mount/d1/dir use_mount/d2`
-Bring all bricks up and trigger heal.

Actual results:
fuse_mount/d2/dir won't have any gfid symlink.

Additional info:
For replica 3 volume, the heal won't even complete, see the .t attached.

    posix: add sanity checks for removing the gfid symlink for directories
    
    ...during mkdir and rmdir. Otherwise, during entry self-heal, the
    directory could be left out without a .glusterfs symlink causing fops like
    opendir, readdir to fail.  The only chance the missing symlink will be
    created is when a fresh lookup comes on it.
