Title: No manual symlinks

MoarVM has some behavior, when getting a file's size, to resolve symbolic links' paths by hand until a non-link is reached. Not only does `fstat` itself handle this situation already, but the current behavior will attempt to follow a self-referential link (or a series of them, with the last one pointing at the first) until the program is killed. This change allows the OS to handle symbolic links itself.
