Hard link in CT_GetCustom

[Jasmin J.]

Hi!

I am currently using a Laptop with a small SSD, so I ran CT-NG on a USB 3.0
HDD. To be more precise, I am using SymLinks for some directories.
I discovered a problem in CT_GetCustom() for my custom source directories.
There is this line:
  CT_DoExecLog DEBUG cp -al "${component_location}" \
            "${CT_SRC_DIR}/${component_name}-${component_version}"
It does not work in my setup, because the src and build directories are on
different drives. Is there any good reason why a hard link (-al) is used?
I changed it to a sym-link (-as) and this works also.
If it is OK to use the sym-link, I will provide a patch.
