repo: Add ostree_repo_write_symlink

Continuation of the addition of `ostree_repo_write_regfile_inline()`.
This will be helpful for ostree-rs-ext and importing from tar, it's
quite inefficient and awkward for small files to end up creating
a whole `GInputStream` and `GFileInfo` and etc. for small files.
