readlink: document portability issue with symlink length
...
Per comments in areadlink, ERANGE on a too-small buffer is
expected on some platforms; making the readlink module guarantee
GNU behavior of truncated contents is counter-productive, since
we would be duplicating areadlink to learn a-priori how large to
make the buffer, and since truncated contents are not as useful.
* doc/posix-functions/lstat.texi (lstat): Mention that some file
systems have bogus st_size on symlinks, and mention the
areadlink-with-size module.
* doc/posix-functions/fstatat.texi (fstatat): Likewise.
* doc/posix-functions/readlink.texi (readlink): Mention the
areadlink module, and ERANGE failure.
* doc/posix-functions/readlinkat.texi (readlinkat): Likewise.
* tests/test-readlink.c (main): Relax test for AIX, HP-UX.

lstat: fix Solaris 9 bug
...
lstat("file/",buf) mistakenly succeeded.
* lib/lstat.c (lstat): Also check for trailing slash on
non-symlink, non-directories. Use stat module to simplify logic.
* doc/posix-functions/lstat.texi (lstat): Document it.
* modules/lstat-tests (Depends-on): Add errno, same-inode.
(configure.ac): Check for symlink.
* tests/test-lstat.c (main): Add more tests.
