Support for pathlib.Path.link_to()
See original GitHub issuePython 3.8 has added a new method to pathlib library: Path.link_to() for creating hard links (https://docs.python.org/3/library/pathlib.html#pathlib.Path.link_to). I think that it is not supported by pyfakefs yet (v. 4.3.3).
It would be nice to mock this method since it is an easy way to create hard links.
Maybe it would be a good idea to include a FakeFilesystem.create_link() method for creating hard links (similar to FakeFilesystem.create_symlink() for soft links).
Thank you.

Ok, I had thought
pathlib2is not used anymore (it is definitely not needed in Python 3.8). Making a separate accessor forpathlib2is probably not worth it. I could just remove the check forpathlib2and let it fail if you usepathlib2instead ofpathlib.This is probably the best option, because if you want to use
link_to, you cannot usepathlib2, or you would get the same exception.Excellent and quick work! I have installed it from master. Thanks a lot. Happy new year!
