fix incorrect base name offset from nftw when pathname ends in slash(es)
the rightmost '/' character is not necessarily the delimiter before the basename; it could be a spurious trailing character on the directory name. this change does not introduce any normalization of pathnames or stripping of trailing slashes, contrary to at least glibc and perhaps other implementations; it jusst prevents their presence from breaking things. whether further changes should be made is an open question that may depend on conformance and/or application compatibility considerations. based loosely on patch by Joakim Sindholt.
