Something like this:
path.cc: Allow to skip filesystem checks
When file attributes are of no concern, there is no point to query them.
This can greatly speedup code which doesn't need it.
For example, this can be used to try a path without filesystem checks first
and try again with filesystem checks
If you want, I can also squash some of these related commits.
