But then we also should be consequent and rename the entire
low-level plumbing to dirlink.  I don't see a reason to keep
both.

For me the S_ macro names are about the file type which is represented
by them.  The fact that dirlinks/gitlinks are represented as
DIR + LNK is nice but not so important that we have to name the
macro that way.
