`ispath` should probably not dereference symlinks

[Keno]

This is not the behavior I would have expected given the documentation. Do we consider this a bug?
shell> ln -s nonexistent foo

julia> ispath("foo")
false

shell> ls
foo

help?> ispath
search: ispath abspath isabspath mkpath isdirpath joinpath relpath isspace splitpath isbits realpath popat! splat isa isnan stat isqrt

  ispath(path) -> Bool

  Return true if a valid filesystem entity exists at path, otherwise returns false. This is the generalization of isfile, isdir etc.

I find this behavior surprising. At the very least, the docs are misleading.

What do isfile() and isdir() do?

[Keno]

They follow the symlink, but that's good and expected. path is semantically different though in that it usually refers to the place in the filesystem tree and not to the object that's there.
