docs: add copyfile and linkfile elements description

The "copyfile" element is available since 2009 and
have been used in every Android manifest; the "linkfile"
element is available since 2014.
Now it's a good time to add both to the documentation

+Element copyfile
+----------------
+
+Zero or more copyfile elements may be specified as children of a
+project element. Each element describes a src-dest pair of files;
+the "src" file will be copied to the "dest" place during 'repo sync'
+command.
+"src" is project relative, "dest" is relative to the top of the tree.
+
+Element linkfile
+----------------
+
+It's just like copyfile and runs at the same time as copyfile but
+instead of copying it creates a symlink.
