fix(backup): E1509 when writing extended attr to symlink (#28014)
Problem: E1509 when writing extended attributes to a symlink.
Solution: Copy the file before copying extended attributes.
On Fedora, the attribute being set is "security.selinux". For normal,
non-symlink files this attribute doesn't show up and that's why calling
os_copy_xattr() doesn't break in that case.
