[LTP] [PATCH v4 2/2] fstat: add test for multiple file types using fstat

[Andrea Cervesato]

Hi!

> Following review feedback, create a dedicated fstat test that verifies
> S_ISREG(), S_ISDIR(), S_ISFIFO(), S_ISLNK(), S_ISCHR(), S_ISBLK()

What's the point of always sending TCONF?

And here as well we can use TST_EXP_EXPR()
