Make a symlink.

A symlink to source is created at linkname. If multiple sources are specified,
then linkname is assumed to be a directory, and will contain all the links to
the sources (basenames identical to their source).

On Windows, this will use hard links (mklink /H) to avoid requiring elevation.
This means that if the original is deleted and replaced, the link will still
have the old contents.
