[Buildroot] [PATCH] fs: ensure hard links in TARGET_DIR are correctly copied for filesystem input

[Peter Korsgaard <peter@korsgaard.com>]

Fixes #11046

Commit bb2a57a17a7 (fs: run packages' filesystem hooks in a copy of target/)
changed the file system logic to run file system hooks from packages on a
copy of TARGET_DIR, and finally use this copy as input for the file system
generation.

This copy was done with rsync, which by default does not preserve hard
links, leading to an expansion of the file system images when hard links are
present.

Fix it by passing the -H option to rsync (preserve hard links).

Alternatively we can use 'cp -a' instead of rsync.
