.SYNOPSIS
    Tests which filesystem link capabilities are supported by the current session.
.OUTPUTS
    System.Management.Automation.PSCustomObject
    If the current session supports filesystem links, returns an object with the following properties:
        HardLinks: An array of strings indicating which types of hard links are supported.
        Junctions: An array of strings indicating which types of junctions are supported.
        SymbolicLinks: An array of strings indicating which types of symbolic links are supported.
    If the current session does not support filesystem links, returns $false.
