[issue1578269] Add os.link() and os.symlink() support for Windows

[Sean Reifschneider]

Sean Reifschneider added the comment:

swarren: According to the wikipedi article on junction points:

   They can only be used on folders, not files.
   They are being replaced by symbolic links.

The latter I take to mean junction points are being phased out, but I
couldn't find any information one way or another on it.
