Dirent.IsDir() returns false for symlinks to directories

hi thank you for this project

i'm wondering how I can tell if a symlink to a directory is a directory, where in my case

dirent.IsDir() = false
dirent.IsSymlink() = true

i think i saw a isSymlinkToDirectory, but it wasn't public

thanks!

Thanks for bringing up the issue. I think it might be a fair addition to the library to expose that feature.

great to hear thank you :)
