There are many instances where the treatment of symbolic links in the
object model and the algorithms are tested, but where it is not
necessary to actually have a symbolic link in the worktree. Make
adjustments to the tests and remove the SYMLINKS prerequisite when
appropriate in trivial cases, where "trivial" means:
- merely a replacement of 'ln -s a b && git add b' by test_ln_s_add
is needed;
- a test for symbolic link on the file system can be split off (and
remains protected by SYMLINKS);
- existing code is equivalent to test_ln_s_add.

This adds tests where an untracked file and an untracked symlink are in the
way where a directory should be created by 'git checkout'. Commit b1735b1a
(do not overwrite files in leading path, 2010-12-14) fixed the case where
a file is in the way, but the untracked symlink is still removed silently.
