  Description     : symbolic link aware filepath walk (Go library)

 Package symwalk provides an implementation of symbolic link aware
 filepath walk.
 .
 Walk calls filepath.Walk (http://golang.org/pkg/path/filepath/#Walk) by
 providing it with a special WalkFn that wraps the given WalkFn. This
 function calls the given WalkFn for regular files. However, when it
 encounters a symbolic link, it resolves the link fully using
 filepath.EvalSymlinks
 (http://golang.org/pkg/path/filepath/#EvalSymlinks) and recursively
 calls symwalk.Walk on the resolved path. This ensures that unlike
 filepath.Walk, traversal does not stop at symbolic links.
