Original patch by Michal Nowikowski, with some additions and wording fixes by me. I changed the wording from 'Performs a stat system call' to 'Performs the equivalent of a stat system call', since on Windows there are no stat/lstat system calls involved. I also extended Michal's breakout of the attributes into a list to the other paragraphs, and rearranged the order of the paragraphs in the 'stat' docs to make it flow better and put it in what I think is a more logical/useful order. ........
