Fix some database size estimation problems

* Use stat() and not lstat(); we don't care for the size of the symlink if
  it is one, we want the size of the reference file.
* FS#22896, fix local database estimation on platforms that don't abide by
  the nlink assumption for number of children.
* Fix a missing newline on an error message.
