UnixFileDirectoryPlugin, take 2.

This version adds primitives for primStat stuff, per suggestions from
Tim and Lex. It also has the FileDirectory>>entries stuff I posted last
time (but rewritten a bit in places).

The new method which is roughly equivalent (but not the same as)
FileDirectory>>isAFileNamed runs about 1,400 times faster (!) than
the one in the image. The FileDirectory>>entries replacement seems
to be about 15 times faster. Actual performance improvements
when integrated into the FileDirectory and FileStream classes will
certainly be less, YMMV, etc, etc.

I have not attempted to integrate the file stat testing into the
FileDirectory and FileStream classes. If anyone does it, please post.

This is a quick hack, so be kind if I screwed things up.
