Adds kind fixes deleting broken symlinks

Browse Source 
`delete()` and other functions would check `exists` to do certain behaviors, but `exists` will validate a symlink if the entry is a symlink, thus instead we check if the path is an actual entry now instead.

* There are several symlink paths on Mac that are typically automatically
resolved by Foundation, eg. `/private`, we attempt to do the same for
functions that you would expect it (notably `realpath`), but we do *not* for
`Path.init`, *nor* if you are joining a path that ends up being one of these
paths, (eg. `Path.root.join("var/private')`).

If a `Path` is a symlink but the destination of the link does not exist `exists`
returns `false`. This seems to be the correct thing to do since symlinks are
meant to be an abstraction for filesystems. To instead verify that there is
no filesystem entry there at all check if `kind` is `nil`.
