Function std.file.attrIsFile
Returns whether the given file attributes are for a file.
On Windows, if a file is not a directory, it's a file. So, either
attrIsFileattrIsDirtrue for the
attributes of any given file.
On Posix systems, if attrIsFiletrue, that indicates that the
file is a regular file (e.g. not a block not device). So, on Posix systems,
it's possible for both attrIsFileattrIsDirfalse
for a particular file (in which case, it's a special file). If a file is a
special file, you can use the attributes to check what type of special file
it is (see the man page for stat for more information).
