Description:
------------
is_file method (probably all filestat method based) is not taking into account the php://filter shape when describing a file to open. This is pretty normal to write code like that:
if (is_file($path))
    throw new \Exception("File exists");

$file = open($path);
...

Unfortunately, is_file will always return false when a filter is used

Note: this issue is probably affecting ALL php versions

Test script:
---------------
ed@test:~$ php -v

That behaves as expected, because php://filter streams don't
support stat[1].  Given that this issue got no further traction,
I'm closing as not a bug.

If you still think this should be supported, feel free to pursue
the RFC process[2].
