core/download: fix when the BR2_DL_DIR does not accept hardlinks

Browse Source 
When the BR2_DL_DIR is a mountpoint (presumably shared between various
machine, or mounted from the local host when running in a VM), it is
possible that it does not support hardlinks (e.g. samba, or the VMWare
VMFS, etc...).

If the hardlink fails, fallback to copying the file. As a last resort,
if that also fails, eventually fallback to doing the download.

Note: this means that the dl-wrapper is no longer atomic-safe: the code
suffers of a TOCTTOU condition: the file may be created in-between the
check and the moment we try to ln/cp it. Fortunately, the dl-wrapper is
now run under an flock, so we're still safe. If we eventually go for a
more fine-grained implementation, we'll have to be careful then.
