os: reimplement windows os.Stat

Currently windows Stat uses combination of Lstat and Readlink to
walk symlinks until it reaches file or directory. Windows Readlink
is implemented via Windows DeviceIoControl(FSCTL_GET_REPARSE_POINT, ...)
call, but that call does not work on network shares or inside of
Docker container (see issues #18555 ad #19922 for details).

But Raymond Chen suggests different approach:
https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/oldnewthing/20100212-00/?p=14963/
- he suggests to use Windows I/O manager to dereferences the
symbolic link.

This appears to work for all normal symlinks, but also for network
shares and inside of Docker container.

This CL implements described procedure.

I also had to adjust TestStatSymlinkLoop, because the test is
expecting Stat to return syscall.ELOOP for symlink with a loop.
But new Stat returns Windows error of ERROR_CANT_RESOLVE_FILENAME
= 1921 instead. I could map ERROR_CANT_RESOLVE_FILENAME into
syscall.ELOOP, but I suspect the former is broader than later.
And ERROR_CANT_RESOLVE_FILENAME message text of "The name of
the file cannot be resolved by the system." sounds fine to me.

Fixes #10935
Fixes #18555
Fixes #19922
