When preparing cl/4381 I noticed that we actually handle this case
properly. depot.nix.utils.storePathName depot.path now works as
expected.

In order to make readTree import symlinked directories I've been looking
into how to detect if a symlink points to a directory (since this would
allow us to use symlinks for //nix/sparseTree). I've found a hack for
this:
symlinkPointsToDir = path: isSymlink path &&
builtins.pathExists (toString path + "/.")
Unfortunately it doesn't seem to be possible to distinguish whether the
symlink target does not exist or is a regular file.
Since it's possible, I thought might as well add this to
`pathType`. To make returning the extra information workable, I've
elected to use the attribute set layout used by `//nix/tag`. This
doesn't require us to depend anything (as opposed to yants), but gives
us pattern matching (via `nix.tag.match`) and also quite idiomatic
checking of pathTypes:
pathType ./foo ? file
(pathType ./foo).symlink or null == "symlink-directory"
Nonexistent paths are encoded like this:
pathType ./foo ? missing
Of course we can't use this in readTree (since it must be zero
dependency), but we can easily inline this hack at some point.
