    glocalfileoutputstream: Fix CREATE_REPLACE_DESTINATION with symlinks
    
    The `G_FILE_CREATE_REPLACE_DESTINATION` flag is equivalent to unlinking
    the destination file and re-creating it from scratch. That did
    previously work, but in the process the code would call `open(O_CREAT)`
    on the file. If the file was a dangling symlink, this would create the
    destination file (empty). That’s not an intended side-effect, and has
    security implications if the symlink is controlled by a lower-privileged
    process.
    
    Fix that by not opening the destination file if it’s a symlink, and
    adjusting the rest of the code to cope with
     - the fact that `fd == -1` is not an error iff `is_symlink` is true,
     - and that `original_stat` will contain the `lstat()` results for the
       symlink now, rather than the `stat()` results for its target (again,
       iff `is_symlink` is true).
    
    This means that the target of the dangling symlink is no longer created,
    which was the bug. The symlink itself continues to be replaced (as
    before) with the new file — this is the intended behaviour of
    `g_file_replace()`.
    
    The behaviour for non-symlink cases, or cases where the symlink was not
    dangling, should be unchanged.
    
    Includes a unit test.
