When running the tests if NODE_TEST_DIR is set to a device different
than the location of the test files (where this repo is checked out),
then the parallel/test-fs-link.js test will fail with
EXDEV: cross-device link not permitted. The code works fine (and is in
fact throwing an error as desired) but the test fails.

This commit first copies the "source" file to the same directory as the
"destination" (where the hardlink will be created).

This PR possibly replaces PR #4859 (which is made against the v4.x branch).

I'm particularly interested in having this backported to the v4.x branch if that makes sense, as I'm running into the test failure while trying to build argon.

I'd simplify this to e.g.:

constsrcPath=path.join(common.tmpDir,'target.txt');fs.writeFileSync(srcPath,'hello world');

One fewer variable.
