docs/fs/ntfs: add mount options to support Windows native symbolic links

Browse Source 
Introduce the "symlink=<value>" and the "native_symlink=<value>" mount
options to configure the creation behavior of symbolic links and support
creating Windows native symbolic links (reparse points with the
IO_REPARSE_TAG_SYMLINK tag).

native_symlink=raw|rel Configure how absolute symbolic links and mount
points (junctions) are handled. Under "raw"
(default), the absolute target path is returned
as-is without translation. Under "rel", it is
rewritten as a relative path anchored at
the volume root.
symlink=wsl|native Configure how symbolic links are created. Under
"wsl" (default), WSL (Windows Subsystem for
Linux) compatible symlinks are created. Under
"native", Windows native symbolic links are
created.
