[Feature] Allow storing the 'persist' folder on a different drive using a symbolic link

[chaerun]

Feature Request

I'm storing my persistent data on another drive by creating a symbolic link to the persist folder.

New-Item -ItemType SymbolicLink -Path '~\scoop\persist' -Value 'D:\persist'

When installing an application, I got this error message:

New-Item: C:\Users\Chaerun\scoop\apps\scoop\current\lib\install.ps1:1057
Line |
1057 |  …             New-Item -Path $source -ItemType HardLink -Value $target  …
     |                ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
     | The system cannot move the file to a different disk drive.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Scoop failed to persist data because the physical location of the persist folder is on a different drive.
This occurred because install.ps1 uses a HardLink when persisting a file

# target is a file, create hard link
New-Item -Path $source -ItemType HardLink -Value $target | Out-Null

Describe the solution you'd like

Use SymbolicLink instead of HardLink when persisting a file

# target is a file, create symbolic link
New-Item -Path $source -ItemType SymbolicLink -Value $target | Out-Null
