The `type` argument is only available on Windows and ignored on other platforms.
It can be set to `'dir'`, `'file'`, or `'junction'`. If the `type` argument is
not set, Node.js will autodetect `target` type and use `'file'` or `'dir'`. If
the `target` does not exist, `'file'` will be used. Windows junction points
not a string, Node.js will autodetect `target` type and use `'file'` or `'dir'`.
If the `target` does not exist, `'file'` will be used. Windows junction points
require the destination path to be absolute. When using `'junction'`, the
`target` argument will automatically be normalized to absolute path.
