Add support for cloning with hardlinks on windows. In order to use hardlinks, the win32file module is needed, and this is present in ActivePython. If it isn't present, or hardlinks are not supported on the underlying filesystem, a regular copy is used. When using hardlinks the biggest benefit is probably the saving in space, but cloning can be much quicker. For example cloning the Xen tree (non trivial) without an update goes from about 95s to 15s. Unix-like platforms should be unaffected, although should be more tolerant on filesystems that don't support hard links.
