cluster/dht: Fix dht_link to follow files under migration
Currently if a file is under migration, a hardlink to that file is lost post migration of the file. This is due to the fact that the hard link is created against the cached subvol of the source and as the source is under migration, it shifts to a linkto file post migration. Thus losing the hardlink. This change follows the stat information that triggers a phase1/2 detection for a file under migration, to create the link on the new subvol that the source file is migrating to. Thereby preserving the hard link post migration. NOTES: The test case added create a ~1GB file, so that we can catch the file during migration, smaller files may not capture this state and the test may fail. Even if migration of the file fails, we would only be left with stale linkto files on the subvol that the source was migrating to, which is not a problem. This change would create a double linkto, i.e new target hashed subvol would point to old source cached subol, which would point to the real cached subvol. This double redirection although not handled directly in DHT, works as lookup searches everywhere on hitting linkto files. The downside is that it never heals the new target hashed subvol linkto file, which is another bug to be resolved (does not cause functional impact).
