Subject: [PATCH] main: Add option to ignore symlinks

When analyzing a complete rootfs (which might not be the rootfs of the
analyzing system) symlinks within that rootfs might be broken. In
particular absolute symlinks. However, if by chance such a symlink
currently points to a valid binary in your system, this binary pointed
to is analyzed. This commit adds the possibility to ignore symlinks to
files (symlinks to dirs are already ignored by default). This allows to
solve the issue described above, and if the whole rootfs is analyzed
there shouldn't be a loss of information (because all the binaries will
be analyzed anyway). Additionally, this also saves some time when
performing the analysis.
