test: fs.link() test runs on same device

When running the tests if `NODE_TEST_DIR` is set to a device different than the location of the test files (where this repo is checked out), then the parallel/test-fs-link.js test will fail with `EXDEV: cross-device link not permitted`. The code works fine (and is in fact throwing an error as desired) but the test fails. This commit first creates the "source" file in the same directory as the "destination" (where the hardlink will be created).
