Description
-------

Some kio protocols support creating symlinks but a change in 
kio/kio/copyjob.cpp hardcoded symlink creation to only when source and 
destination protocols are the same. That change was added to fix a problem with 
ftp protocol creating symlinks instead of copying files (there is a comment in 
the source code about that). I think instead of forcing source and destination 
use the same protocol we should test if the destination protocol supports 
creating symlinks (ftp protocol does not). That would allow kio's like fish and 
nfs create symlinks. I am also working on some other changes that could use 
this feature.
