Fix linker error

Currently, `fs::hard_link` determines whether platforms have `linkat` based on the OS, and uses `link` if they don't. However, this heuristic does not work well if a platform provides `linkat` on newer versions but not on older ones. On old MacOS, this currently causes a linking error.

This commit fixes `fs::hard_link` by telling it to use `weak!` on macOS. This means that, on  that operating system, we now check for `linkat` at runtime and use `link` if it is not available.

Fixes #80804.
