[PATCH] Adapt debug info fstat check for windows


On windows the resulting ino and dev entries are always 0, so the file
would always be discarded. We apply a heuristic instead: If the ctime,
mtime, mode and size of the two files are all equal then we consider
them to be the same. It's exceedingly unlikely to produce two different
files for which that holds by chance.
