os.link is not in os.supports_follow_symlinks on Windows and the source is
always a fresh mkstemp regular file, so follow_symlinks=False never had an
effect. On a build that honours the documented contract it raises
NotImplementedError, a RuntimeError subclass that escapes the except OSError
and breaks every file download. Drop the argument; destination symlinks are
still refused because os.link fails when the destination exists.
Cover the whole Windows reserved-name set with literal names rather than
deriving them from the implementation constant, so narrowing the COM/LPT
range fails the suite instead of passing silently. Add cases for names that
sanitise down to an empty string, which only the ("", ".", "..") guard
rejects and which would otherwise resolve to the download directory itself.
