    Enable almost all TAP tests involving symlinks on Windows · d66b23b0
    Andrew Dunstan authored
    Windows has junction points which function as symbolic links for
    directories. This patch introduces a new function TestLib::dir_symlink()
    which creates a junction point on Windows and a standard Unix type
    symbolic link elsewhere.
    
    The function TestLib::perl2host is also modified, first to use cygpath
    where it's available (e.g. msys2) and second to allow it to succeed if
    the gandparent directory exists but the parent does not.
    
    Given these changes the only symlink tests that need to be skipped on
    Windows are those related to permissions or to use of readlink. The
    relevant tests for pg_basebackup and pg_rewind are therefore adjusted
    accordingly.
