#99 filepath entity on unix matches directories

The filepath entity should only match files. The bug exists with operation=equals because the existence method FilePathExists() delegates to FileNameExists() which on unix does not check the file type.

I think this was fixed in [r1210] on a branch. Unix FileFinder::FileNameExists() now checks the file type.
