Strings in protobuf must be utf-8, and we enforce that explicitly or implicitly in most places, but not really in symlink targets. Symlinks can target things outside of synced folders and we have no authority to decide what the encoding of that filename is, so allow it as an uninterpreted byte sequence.
This is wire- and database compatible with the existing definition.
