chore(get): simplify symlink logic (#1035)

* Current implementation: write entry as file, check if entry is
symlink, remove file and create symlink
* Improved implementation: check if entry is symlink, stream entry to
buffer, extract link target and create symlink. Otherwise, stream entry
to file.
