Our dirent structure is "slim": it has a flexible-length array at the
end which must be allocated to whatever size the consumer wants. However,
we use [1] there and not [0] or [], which meant GCC thought it was not
a flexible-length array, and so it optimized various string accesses
that it assumed must be always false. Among these was BDirectory's
check for "." and "..", and so that resulted in infinite loops.
When changing our dirent structure to a proper FLA instead of [1],
GCC then throws errors on LongDirEntry as it has data "after" the
FLA; which is what we want, but there is no way to tell GCC that.
So now we use a union instead, which is the proper way to statically
allocate a FLA.
This is part of #17389, but the real fix requires changing our dirent
structure, which is coming in a separate commit.
the syscall. Anything beyond st_mtim was therefore not filled in. Fixes
the incorrectly shown creation times in Tracker.
* The BStatable::GetStat() solution was not sufficient yet. We still have to
provide the old GetStat() symbol for BNode and BEntry, since those could be
used by old applications/libraries. We also still have to implement the old
GetStat() slots in the derived classes, but don't need to implement it in
the base class (was purely virtual before and is private now).
* The old BStatable::_OhSoStatable1() slot function was not implemented
correctly. Calling the virtual function at the vtable slot obviously results
in an infinite recursion. The correct implementation would make use of the
Perform() method, but Be didn't provide one for BStatable, so we have to use
the old GetStat() method. Fixed#3960.

syscall, but they could not know if R5 code called them (in which case the stat
size has a different size). We now always only return the R5 stat structure here.
This fixes bug #420. We might want to find a different solution to this problem,
though.
* Be got SYMLINK_MAX wrong - it's not the maximum number of links (that's SYMLOOP_MAX),
but the maximum size of a symlink buffer. Added missing SYMLOOP_MAX and SYMLINK_MAX
constants to limits.h.
* Fixes MAXSYMLINKS to use SYMLOOP_MAX, instead of SYMLINKS_MAX (which doesn't exist
in POSIX specs, but we (intentionally) break source compatibility here).
* Reenabled the Haiku versions of stat(), fstat(), and lstat() when build for Haiku.
* Removed OpenBeOS namespace stuff from the files I touched.
* Removed superfluous StorageDefs.Private.h, whyever that ended up in a public header
is beyond me.
* Cleanup.

unfortunately quite slow and made some things more complicated than they
needed to be.
Implemented a few missing things (e.g. BSymLink and node locking).
