Allow testing for existence of specific file types in wxFileName.

Add "flags" parameter to wxFileName::Exists() to allow testing for the
existing of files of specific type: not only regular or directory but also
symlink, device, FIFO or socket.

And also to pass wxFILE_EXISTS_NO_FOLLOW flag inhibiting following the
symlinks without using DontFollowLink().

Closes #14542.

Alternatively you may check for the existence of a file system entry of

you could use ::wxFILE_EXISTS_SYMLINK.
