Title: (#19447) Phase one, manages_symlinks feature, FileSystem abstraction

- Refactor existing code to add Puppet.features.manages_symlinks and :manages_symlinks as feature
on file type
- Only enables this feature on the POSIX provider
- Introduces new symlink, symlink?, readlink, stat, lstat and exist? functions on Puppet::FileSystem::File
and refactor existing code to use these abstractions
- This lays the foundation for Windows specific symlinnk work
