Support Windows with non-NTFS filesystems

The code for symlink handling failed whenever a win32 platform with no
symlink capability would be detected. This patch is provided by
William H from the support ticket at
http://www.rebar3.org/v3/discuss/598225c90365bb00144bc07f, which
adds detection of failures in non-NTFS scenarios on Win32, and then
copies files instead of bailing out.

The end result should be appropriate support for such a platform.
