What does this PR do?
Several complaints from users have made it clear that the feature to save the 'last.ckpt' file as symbolic link is not wanted. In this PR, I'm reverting the decision to make a symbolic link by default, and make the feature opt-in instead.
This is a breaking change, tell me more about it :))
