pgsql: Replace pgwin32_is_junction() with lstat().

From

Date:
Replace pgwin32_is_junction() with lstat().

Now that lstat() reports junction points with S_IFLNK/S_ISLINK(), and
unlink() can unlink them, there is no need for conditional code for
Windows in a few places.  That was expressed by testing for WIN32 or
S_ISLNK, which we can now constant-fold.

The coding around pgwin32_is_junction() was a bit suspect anyway, as we
never checked for errors, and we also know that errors can be spuriously
reported because of transient sharing violations on this OS.  The
lstat()-based code has handling for that.

This also reverts 4fc6b6ee on master only.  That was done because
lstat() didn't previously work for symlinks (junction points), but now
it does.
