 refreshes [[https://core.trac.wordpress.org/attachment/ticket/36710/fix-
 symlinks.diff|fix-symlinks.diff]].

 Note, however, that it does **not** include the changes to `/wp-
 admin/includes/class-wp-upgrader.php` because I'm not seeing the described
 behavior of `is_writable()` returning false for symlinks (PHP 7.1.24 on
 Windows 10).
