Add cros_config_host support for symlinks

Project Member Reported by jclinton@chromium.org, Nov 3 2017

Issue description

There are various files that are installed to the rootfs that are duplicates. The immediate case is LPE support topology where many of the firmware files are duplicates.

This bug will track adding support for symlinking instead of duplicating these files.

 
Labels: M-64
We'll need this for M64 because Bigdaddy has two SKU's: 2 and 5. This line in this CL currently only installs the filename for the topology file for SKU 5: https://chrome-internal-review.googlesource.com/c/chromeos/overlays/overlay-reef-private/+/495692/2/chromeos-base/chromeos-config-bsp/files/model.dtsi#517
 We need a symlink to the alternative file name.

You could define these two as submodels which can then each have their own audio.

But it would be nice to have this feature.

CL in flight to unblock Bigdaddy for M64; this will remain as a feature request.

It seems like we might have implemented this at some point in the last few months. Greg, does that ring a bell?
