This reverts commit ef373416 (SystemTools: Fix FileIsSymlink with
Windows data deduplication, 2019-01-18).  It regressed `FileIsSymlink`
such that it does not always recognize broken symlinks as symlinks.

Revert pending further investigation.  Notes for re-introduction:

* We need to add a test to cover the case that broke.
* We should save the Encoding::ToWindowsExtendedPath result and
  use it for both GetFileAttributesW and CreateFileW instead of
  using Encoding::ToWide for the latter.

KWSys

Introduction

KWSys is the Kitware System Library. It provides platform-independent APIs to many common system features that are implemented differently on every platform. This library is intended to be shared among many projects at the source level, so it has a configurable namespace. Each project should configure KWSys to use a namespace unique to itself. See comments in CMakeLists.txt for details.

License

KWSys is distributed under the OSI-approved BSD 3-clause License. See Copyright.txt for details.

Reporting Bugs

KWSys has no independent issue tracker. After encountering an issue (bug) please submit a patch using the instructions for Contributing. Otherwise please report the issue to the tracker for the project that hosts the copy of KWSys in which the problem was found.
