	 * This method is called in response to stat() calls on the URL paths associated with the wrapper.
	 *
	 * It should return as many elements in common with the system function as possible.
	 * Unknown or unavailable values should be set to a rational value (usually 0).
	 *
	 * If you plan to use your wrapper in a require_once you need to define stream_stat().
	 * If you plan to allow any other tests like is_file()/is_dir(), you have to define url_stat().
	 * stream_stat() must define the size of the file, or it will never be included.
	 * url_stat() must define mode, or is_file()/is_dir()/is_executable(), and any of those functions affected by clearstatcache() simply won't work.
	 * It's not documented, but directories must be a mode like 040777 (octal), and files a mode like 0100666.
	 * If you wish the file to be executable, use 7s instead of 6s.
	 * The last 3 digits are exactly the same thing as what you pass to chmod.
	 * 040000 defines a directory, and 0100000 defines a file.
	 *
	 * @param string $path
	 * @param int $flags holds additional flags set by the streams API. It can hold one or more of the following values OR'd together:
	 * - STREAM_URL_STAT_LINK	For resources with the ability to link to other resource (such as an HTTP Location: forward,
	 *                          or a filesystem symlink). This flag specified that only information about the link itself should be returned,
	 *                          not the resource pointed to by the link.
	 *                          This flag is set in response to calls to lstat(), is_link(), or filetype().
	 * - STREAM_URL_STAT_QUIET	If this flag is set, your wrapper should not raise any errors. If this flag is not set,
	 *                          you are responsible for reporting errors using the trigger_error() function during stating of the path.
	 *                          stat triggers it's own warning anyway, so it makes no sense to trigger one by our stream-wrapper!
	 * @param boolean $try_create_home=false should a user home-directory be created automatic, if it does not exist
	 * @param boolean $check_symlink_components=true check if path contains symlinks in path components other then the last one
	 * @return array
