FileStat missing

[dokterbob]

type FileStat struct {
    Cid cid.Cid
    Blocks int
    Size int
    CumulativeSize int
    Type FileType
}

As return value for proposed UnixFs.Stat(), see: ipfs/go-ipfs-http-client#78

This is currently the case because there is no "ipfs stat" command and we haven't implemented the ipfs files API (#54).

However, we should probably just go ahead and expose that on the CoreAPI. However, I'd return the following:

type FileStat struct {
    Cid cid.Cid
    Size int // File size, if known. Otherwise -1.
    Type FileType
    Mode os.FileMode // coming in unixfsv1.5
    ModTime time.Time // coming in unixfsv1.5
}

Explicitly dropping things directly related to the underlying structure (non-cumulative size & number of direct children)

UnixFS 1.5!? What about 2? Is it finally coming? I'm getting worried. ;)
