rD52461: Document __FreeBSD_version 1300003: vop_symlink API change.
rS340055: Make vop_symlink take a const target path.
Summary

This will enable callers to take const paths as part of syscall
decleration improvements.

Where doing so is easy and non-distruptive carry the const through
implementations. In UFS the value is passed to an interface that must
take non-const values. In ZFS, const poisoning would touch code shared
with upstream and it's not worth adding diffs.

Test Plan

tinderbox build, build kmod ports

With the nandfs fix this passes universe. I've done a search for vop_symlink on https://grok.dragonflybsd.org and concluded that an exp-run isn't going to find anything so I'll skip that.
