Add an option to find by name before stat #4

If one of the search criteria is the filename - you can skip the stat function for each file that not equal to the name and speed up the search

At the moment the stat is required to work out if a path is a directory or not.

There is another option for that but it would require a bigger refactor which I'm not really up for at the moment. If you wan't to create a PR, let me know and I will reopen the issue.
