[PATCH] path_conv: do not get confused by a directory with `.lnk` suffix

[Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de>]

When trying to create a directory called `xyz` in the presence of a
directory `xyz.lnk`, the Cygwin runtime errors out with an `ENOENT`.

The root cause is actually a bit deeper: the `symlink_info::check()`
method tries to figure out whether the given path refers to a symbolic
link as emulated via `.lnk` files, but since it is a directory, that is
not the case, and that hypothesis is rejected.

However, the `fileattr` field is not cleared, so that a later
`.exists()` call on the instance mistakenly thinks that the symlink
actually exists. Let's clear that field.

This fixes https://github.com/msys2/msys2-runtime/issues/81
