On the surface, POSIX describes an algorithm that states that
'ln -f A B' will call unlink() on B before ever attempting
link() on A. But strictly following this has the counterintuitive
effect of losing the contents of B, if A does not exist.
Fortunately, POSIX 2008 clarified that an application is free
to fail early if it can prove that continuing onwards cannot
succeed, so we are justified in trying link() before blindly
removing B, thus sometimes calling link() a second time during
a successful 'ln -f A B'.
Try to unlink DEST even if we may have backed it up successfully.
In some unusual cases (when DEST and DEST_BACKUP are hard-links
that refer to the same file), rename succeeds and DEST remains.
If we didn't remove DEST in that case, the subsequent symlink or link
