Speeding up VFS - no more mc_stat("..")

[Pavel Roskin]

Hello!

That's the second part of the patch that speeds up VFS.  If there is no 
".." in the directory list, then a fake ".." is added.  However, mc will 
no longer go up the hierarchy to find the size of the ".." directory.

So, it you have an account of a system foo and your home directory is bar, 
then going to /#sh:foo/home/bar/subdir won't cause mc to get the listing 
of all users under /home.
