[io] copyPath/copyPathSync: add a `deepCopyLinks` parameter (#1267)

The original intention was to create new `Link` objects when copying
links, but the implementation left the implicit `followLinks: true`
argument which meant that in practice links were recursed into and files
and directories deeply copied. This behavior is the only behavior that
will work when there are links present and the copy is across volumes
which do not permit links, but it is not the optimal behavior for most
use cases. Add a `deepCopyLinks` argument which defaults to `true` to
keep the current behavior by default, but allow the smaller copy with
shallow links through a boolean argument.

Update the doc and add tests for the behavior around links both with and
without the argument.
