Note that -L will fall back to use lstat() if the stat() requested
returns ENOENT (if the following lstat() fails, the ENOENT from
the lstat() is returned - that generally indicates that the original
ENOENT came from the filename passed to stat() rather than the
value of the symlink. (The man page doesn't say all of that.)
If "stat -L name" returns data from a symlink (eg: if -f %T is @)
then name must refer to a symlink which points to nothing.
(The man page does say that.)

kre | Some corrections to stat to make it more reasonable, and comply with
the man page, in particular, in one of the EXAMPLES it is claimed:
This example produces output very similar to that from find ... -ls
(except that find(1) displays the time in a different format, and find(1)
sometimes adds one or more spaces after the comma in “major,minor” for
device nodes):
and then uses %9Z in the format, but conveniently does not use a
device file to demonstrate.
If it had, the result would have been:
8033 0 brw-r----- 1 root operator 4, 51 Jun 8 02:44:45 2022 /dev/sd3
Note the spaces which were claimed to exist (sometimes) in find(1) output
but not with stat. Oops.
Omitting those spaces seems like a good idea, so does using the same
field width for the result in both cases, rather than producing 9 chars
in the ordinary file case, and 19 (2 * 9 + 1) in the device case (for %9Z).
Now we will get:
8033 0 brw-r----- 1 root operator 4,51 Jun 8 02:44:45 2022 /dev/sd3
While here, also make the file number (%@) when reading stdin be 0, it is
not the 1st file in the arg list.
Some (very minor) KNF applied at the same time.
In stat.1 make these changes explicit.

kre | Divide stat.1 into stat.1 (now only includes stat(1)) and readlink.1
Apologies to cvs commit purists, but making this division required
line by line reading of the man pages, and I simply could not resist
also correcting some errors, addressing some omissions, improving some
wording ... all at the same time.

atatat | Bend the 'L', 'M', and 'H' modifiers to work on the size, whereby it

Implemented at lukem's request since some things can't deal with
overly large numbers when files are really large.
Have to do something like humanize_number(3), but that interface isn't
really what I'm looking for. I think. More examination required.

Output is now done via stdio, instead of with my stupid homegrown
buffering (I don't even know why I did it that way in the first
place). Also, from Johan Karlsson <johan@freebsd.org>, eliminate a
spurious newline if no output was generated, and link stat(1) to
readlink(1) for similarity to OpenBSD.
