stdlib/os: handle symlinks in copy/move functions (#16709)
* stdlib/os: handle symlinks in copy/move functions

- Added optional `options` argument to `copyFile`, `copyFileToDir`, and
  `copyFileWithPermissions`. By default, symlinks are followed (copy files
  symlinks point to).
- `copyDir` and `copyDirWithPermissions` copy symlinks as symlinks (instead of
  skipping them as it was before).
- `moveFile` and `moveDir` move symlinks as symlinks (instead of skipping them
  sometimes as it was before).
- Added optional `followSymlinks` argument to `setFilePermissions`.
