Subject: Fix: Don't raise FileNotFoundException on symlinks
Origin: upstream, commit 0.4.27-18-g7229954 <https://github.com/ahupp/python-magic/commit/0.4.27-18-g7229954>

    The builtin `open` will always follow symlinks.
    Using `os.stat` is the easiest solution imo.
    An alternative would be using `os.access` but that does not raise
    a FileNotFoundException so I chose `os.stat`.
