Amaury noticed that this was originally written in a way that would fail on
names that can't be encoded with the mbcs codec. Restructured the function
to work with wide names first then narrow names second, to fall in line
with the way other functions are written in posixmodule.c.
Additionally, the st_ino attribute of stat structures was not being filled
in. This was left out of the fix to #10027 and was noticed due to
test_tarfile failing when applying the patch for this issue. An earlier
version of the fix to #10027 included st_ino, but that attribute got lost
in the shuffle of a few review/fix cycles. All tests pass.
Note: This patch has no tests because as of now there is no way to create
links. #8879 adds that and the tests will go in there. I've manually observed
that existing links on my system function properly with this.
The test is semi-dumb, it just makes sure something comes back since we
don't have a solid source to validate the returned login. We can't be 100%
sure that the USERNAME env var will always match what os.getlogin() returns,
so we don't make any specific assertion there.
This uses the GetFileInformationByHandle function to return a tuple of values
to identify a file, then ntpath.sameopenfile compares file tuples, which
is exposed as os.path.sameopenfile.

See the issue (and python-dev archives) for the
gory details. Summarized: OSX behaves rather oddly
and Apple says this is intentional.

Added Windows support for os.symlink when run on Windows 6.0 or greater,
aka Vista. Previous Windows versions will raise NotImplementedError
when trying to symlink.
Includes numerous test updates and additions to test_os, including
a symlink_support module because of the fact that privilege escalation
is required in order to run the tests to ensure that the user is able
to create symlinks. By default, accounts do not have the required
privilege, so the escalation code will have to be exposed later (or
documented on how to do so). I'll be following up with that work next.
Note that the tests use ctypes, which was agreed on during the PyCon
language summit.
PyUnicode_DecodeFSDefault*() doesn't use surrogateescape error handler, and so
PyUnicode_FromEncodedObject(v, Py_FileSystemDefaultEncoding, "surrogateescape")
cannot be replaced by PyUnicode_DecodeFSDefault().
It's a bad idea to try to fix surrogates things in Python 3.1...
