vim-patch:9.0.0803: readblob() cannot read from character device
Problem: readblob() cannot read from character device. Solution: Use S_ISCHR() to not check the size. (Ken Takata, closes vim/vim#11407) https://github.com/vim/vim/commit/43625762a9751cc6e6e4d8f54fbc8b82d98fb20d S_ISCHR is always defined in Nvim. Co-authored-by: K.Takata <kentkt@csc.jp>

When trying to read bytes beyond the end of the file the
result is an empty blob.
