Cygwin: simplify linkat with AT_EMPTY_PATH
linkat(olddirfd, oldpath, oldname, newdirfd, newname, AT_EMPTY_PATH)
is supposed to create a link to the file referenced by olddirfd if
oldname is the empty string. Currently this is done via the /proc
filesystem by converting the call to
linkat(AT_FDCWD, "/proc/self/fd/<olddirfd>", newdirfd, newname,
AT_SYMLINK_FOLLOW),
which ultimately leads to a call to the appropriate fhandler's link
method. Simplify this by using cygheap_fdget to obtain the fhandler
directly.
