arbitraryfilecontext: skip the cmp fast path if any side is a symlink

`filecmp` follows symlinks by default, which a `filectx.cmp()` call should not
be doing as it should only compare the  requested entry. After this patch, only
the contexts' data are compared, which is the correct contract.

This is a corrected version of D1122.

+Arbitraryfilectx.cmp does not follow symlinks:

+  adding A
+  adding B
+  adding real_A
+  adding sym_A
+  $ hg commit -m "base"
+
+These files are different and should return True (different):
+(Note that filecmp.cmp's return semantics are inverted from ours, so we invert
+for simplicity):
+  $ hg eval "context.arbitraryfilectx('A', repo).cmp(repo[None]['real_A'])"
+  True (no-eol)
+  $ hg eval "not filecmp.cmp('A', 'real_A')"
+  True (no-eol)

+These files are identical and should return False (same):

+  False (no-eol)
+  $ hg eval "context.arbitraryfilectx('A', repo).cmp(repo[None]['B'])"
+  False (no-eol)
+  $ hg eval "not filecmp.cmp('A', 'B')"
+  False (no-eol)
+
+This comparison should also return False, since A and sym_A are substantially
+the same in the eyes of ``filectx.cmp``, which looks at data only.
+  $ hg eval "context.arbitraryfilectx('real_A', repo).cmp(repo[None]['sym_A'])"
+  False (no-eol)
+
+A naive use of filecmp on those two would wrongly return True, since it follows
+the symlink to "A", which has different contents.
