This will be used to enable links support for the various mount engines in a follow up commit.
We enable symlink support using the --links command line switch. On the VFS layer, symlinks always ends with the rclonelink suffix. This is because it is what we send/get to/from the remote layer. That mean than any regular operation like rename, remove etc on symlinks files always need to have their rclonelink suffix. That way, we don't mess the internal map of items and avoid lots of troubles. When symlink support is disabled, Symlink and Readlink functions will transparently manage ".rclonelink" files as regular files.
We enable symlink support using the --links command line switch. When symlink support is enabled, the mount backends will translate the name of the vfs symlinks files (truncating their rclonelink suffix). Also, operations like rename, symlink etc does not needs the rclonelink suffix, it is handled internally to pass it to the underlying low level VFS. When symlink support is disabled, Symlink and Readlink functions will transparently manage ".rclonelink" files as regular files. Fixes rclone#2975
