Alias/rename --link-mode=clone to reflink #17722
Description
Summary
The standard name for a CoW file copy on Linux filesystems is a reflink. While I agree it's a pretty bad name, clone is likely to cause confusion (I mistakenly thought it would copy all files bit-for-bit, like "cloning" a hard drive). Could we introduce reflink as a synonym for clone?
