Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
There is a narrow gap between link removal and link creation, which can be problematic for real time workloads

Describe the solution you'd like
Allow symlink functions to use atomic file operations (create temporary link and move into place after creation)

Describe alternatives you've considered
N/A

Please Note
If this feature request would be considered a substantial change or addition, this should go through a SEP process here https://github.com/saltstack/salt-enhancement-proposals, instead of a feature request.
