Feature #14169: PATCH: File.lstat(filename).ino on Windows.

On Unix, the return values of File.stat(filename) and File.lstat(filename)
are same when the file isn't a symbolic link. However they are different
on Windows. File.lstat(filename).ino is always zero. The attached patch
fixes File.lstat(filename).ino to return same value with File.stat(filename).ino.

Before the patch, File.stat() and File.lstat() calls winnt_stat() and
winnt_lstat() in win32.c respectively. After the patch, (1) winnt_lstat()
is deleted, (2) lstat argument is added to winnt_stat() and (3) reparse
point handling, which was in winnt_lstat(), is added to winnt_stat().

As far as I checked, it works fine for junctions and symbolic links as before.
