Link and symlink capabilities exist on win32 platform, yet lstat's implementation is still missing.

Some fs operations need it to work properly, for example rmdir_recursive (#12573)

fs: use an iterative algorithm for 'rmdir_recursive'

For now, the windows version uses stat, just as before.
We should switch back to lstat as soon as rust-lang#12795 is closed.

After a little search, I noticed that rust is an outlier by trying to support links on windows: python and golang don't provide link functions and alias lstat to stat.

However, libuv looks interesting in this regard:

feat: Support the 1.64 nightly proc macro ABI

Should resolve rust-lang/rust-analyzer#12600

Not sure why I thought the Rust version was the same as on beta, that's never the case (but future nightly changes can break the ABI again).
