Fix TOCTOU race in zpool_do_labelclear()

Coverity reported a TOCTOU race in `zpool_do_labelclear()`. This is not
believed to be a real security issue, but fixing it reduces the number
of syscalls we do and will prevent other static analyzers from
complaining about this.

The code is expected to be equivalent. However, under rare
circumstances, such as ELOOP, ENAMETOOLONG, ENOMEM, ENOTDIR and
EOVERFLOW, we will display the error message that we currently display
for the `open()` syscall rather than the one that we currently display
for the `stat()` syscall. This is considered to be an improvement.
