+CRITICAL FIX FOR SPL ITERATORS (BR-12610):
+===========================================
+
+Problem: RecursiveDirectoryIterator fails with "Failed to open directory"
+when Shadow incorrectly treats a FILE as a DIRECTORY.
+
+Example failure:
+  new RecursiveDirectoryIterator('api')
+  -> Iterates and finds "rest.php" file
+  -> Calls hasChildren() -> is_dir('api/rest.php')
+  -> is_dir() uses CACHED path without type validation
+  -> Returns TRUE (file exists, but not validated as directory!)
+  -> getChildren() tries to open FILE as directory
+  -> FATAL ERROR
+
+Solution:
+  When OPT_CHECK_EXISTS is set:
+  1. Use stat() instead of just access() check
+  2. Validate S_ISDIR() vs S_ISREG() vs S_ISLNK()
+  3. Store type metadata in cache
+  4. Only cache as directory if it IS a directory
+  5. This prevents files from ever being treated as directories
