[nvlink-wrapper] Use a symbolic link instead of copying the file (llv…

…m#110139)

Summary:
We need all inputs to `nvlink` to end in `.cubin` while the rest of the
compiler toolchain wants `.o`. Previously we copied `.o` file to
`.cubin` files, but this is wasteful. Instead, we can just create a link
against it. This saves some disk space during link time.
