Jean-Philippe Evrard f961a6d3c2 Revert "Remove sylinked git cache functionality"
This reverts commit 9c1859c7f9.
For deployers having symlinks in the P branch, the removal of
those tasks would be problematic when doing an upgrade to Q.

Instead, we keep those tasks, and mention their deprecation.
People wanting to use the git cache can still use it, but
as a plain folder instead of a symlink.

In OSA deployments prior to Queens, if ``repo_git_cache_dir`` was set
to a folder which existed on a repo container host then that folder
would be symlinked to the repo container bind mount instead of
synchronising its contents to the repo container. This functionality
is deprecated in Queens and will be removed in Rocky. The ability to
make use of the git cache still exists, but the folder contents will
be synchronised from the deploy host to the repo container. If you
have made use of the symlink functionality previously, please move
the contents to a standard folder and remove the symlink.
