Ensure d_type is not DT_UNKNOWN before relying on it
Fixes FS#23090, a rather serious problem where the user was completely unable to read the local database. Even if entry->d_type is available, the given filesystem providing it may not fill the contents, in which case we should fall back to a stat() as we did before. In this case, the filesystem was XFS but there may be others. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
