And introduce the symlink=<value> mount option to configure how symbolic
links are created. The option accepts "wsl" or "native", with "wsl"
being the default.

7266767f67 ntfs: clean up target name conversion for WSL symlinks
WSL symlink target names are stored as narrow NLS/UTF-8 strings on
disk. Converting the target name to Unicode in ntfs_symlink and
converting it back to NLS in ntfs_reparse_set_wsl_symlink is
redundant.

Remove this conversion and pass the symname directly to the reparse
data setter.

2b58f93a13 ntfs: support following Windows native symlink with absolute paths
Extend reparse-point handling beyond relative symlinks so NTFS can
expose the Windows absolute forms used by non-relative symbolic links
and junctions.
* Store the reparse tag and symlink flags in the inode.
* Validate junction payloads, and parse targets from substitute_name.
* Add function to rewrite supported Windows absolute path into Linux
  path relative to the mounted NTFS volume.

4079605199 ntfs: update in-memory, on-disk structures and headers
Update the NTFS filesystem driver's in-memory and on-disk structures:

  - Introduce the  infrastructure and initial support for reparse
    points and EA attribute.
  - Refactor the core ntfs_inode and ntfs_volume structures to support
    new features such as iomap.
  - Remove the unnecessary types.h and endian.h headers.
  - Reorganize the comments in headers for better readability, including
    fixing warnings from checkpatch.pl.
