Subject: Avoid EOVERFLOW problems in some symlink tests

* src/extract.c (is_directory_link): New arg ST.  Caller changed.
(is_directory_link, open_output_file):
Use readlinkat, not fstatat, to determine whether a string
names a symlink.  This avoids EOVERFLOW issues.
(extract_dir): Avoid duplicate calls to fstatat when
keep_directory_symlink_option && fstatat_flags == 0
and the file is a symlink to an existing file.
