builtin/clone: abort when hardlinked source and target file differ

Browse source 
When performing local clones with hardlinks we refuse to copy source
files which are symlinks as a mitigation for CVE-2022-39253. This check
can be raced by an adversary though by changing the file to a symlink
after we have checked it.

Fix the issue by checking whether the hardlinked destination file
matches the source file and abort in case it doesn't.

This addresses CVE-2024-32021.
