Source files sharing (st_dev,st_ino) are recreated as hard links on the
destination; only the first member's data crosses the wire (siblings ride a
payload-less STATUS_HARDLINK frame). Ordering requires the single-FIFO-writer
receiver + forced sequential scan (documented). link()-failure falls back to a
byte-identical local copy. Rejects -s/--append. PROTOCOL_VERSION 2.11.0->2.12.0.
Review fixes: delete the dead HardLinkRegistry (ordering holds by FIFO writer),
and --existing no longer aborts when the first member is absent but the sibling
exists (leaves the sibling in place).
