Bug ID: 46554
           Summary: DeleteFile can't handle broken symlinks (target
                    removed before symlink)
           Product: Wine
           Version: 4.0-rc7
          Hardware: x86-64
                OS: Linux

testcase
While working on a CreateSymbolicLink implementation, I noticed it was causing
test failures in msvcp120. While investigating, I noticed some of the created
symlinks weren't getting deleted. Swapping the order of deletion to make sure
all symlinks are removed before the targets fixed the test failures.
Attached you can find a patch that includes my WIP CreateSymbolicLink
implementation and some DeleteFileA tests that prove that this works on
Windows, but doesn't on Wine. As I said before, removing the symlinks and then
removing the targets works fine.
Beware that my test will leave behind a file, the aforementioned broken
symlink.
