/// @assertion void createSync(
/// String target, {
/// bool recursive: false
/// })
/// Synchronously create the link. Calling createSync on an existing link will
/// throw an exception.
///
/// If recursive is false, the default, the link is created only if all
/// directories in its path exist. If recursive is true, all non-existing path
/// components are created. The directories in the path of target are not
/// affected, unless they are also in path.
///
/// On the Windows platform, this will only work with directories, and the
/// target directory must exist. The link will be created as a Junction. Only
/// absolute links will be created, and relative paths to the target will be
/// converted to absolute paths.
///
/// On other platforms, the posix symlink() call is used to make a symbolic link
/// containing the string target. If target is a relative path, it will be
/// interpreted relative to the directory containing the link.
/// @description Checks that on the Windows platform, this will only work with
/// directories, and the target directory must exist. Test existing directory
///
/// @note The test should run with the Administrator priveleges on Windows.
/// Dart API Spec reads:
/// In order to create a symbolic link on Windows, Dart must be run in
/// Administrator mode or the system must have Developer Mode enabled, otherwise
/// a FileSystemException will be raised with ERROR_PRIVILEGE_NOT_HELD set as
/// the errno when this call is made.
