Update symlinks after changing core.symlinks

[Andrej Zhilenkov <azhilenkov@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello! Is there a direct way to update symlinks in repo after changing
core.symlinks?
E.g. update plain files, if it was false, with symlinks or vice versa.

I've tried `checkout` and `reset` but they have no effect in this case
(see the snippet below). The only two things that are working:
- checking out a commit before the symlink was introduced and then
checking out any commit after (need to know that special commit to
make it work for those specific symlinks, not practical)
- removing symlinked files and checking them out specifically (need to
either have a list or somehow search for those files to reset)

Is this the way to do it or is there an alternative?

Snippet output:
```
Using temporary directory: /tmp/tmp.gynGH2VcB1
Checking symlink status after creation:
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 Apr  2 07:12 symlink.txt -> original.txt
Checking symlink status after checkout:
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 Apr  2 07:12 symlink.txt -> original.txt
Checking symlink status after reset:
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 Apr  2 07:12 symlink.txt -> original.txt
Checking symlink status after removal and checkout:
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 12 Apr  2 07:12 symlink.txt
```
