formalize symlink handling for file system store #4126

Description

@d-v-b

LocalStore today does not have a formal policy about symlinks. IMO we should not follow symlinked directories for hierarchy traversal, because this allows loops to form in the zarr hierarchy, and we should ensure that we can delete symlinks properly when cleaning up a hierarchy. there might be os-specific details to iron out here. and this needs to be documented.
