manifest_xml: change .repo/manifest.xml to a plain file
Changing this to a file instead of using a symlink serves two purposes: * We can insert some comments & doc links to help users learn what this is for, discover relevant documentation, and to discourage them from modifying things. * Windows requires Administrator access to use symlinks. With this last change, Windows users can get repo client checkouts with the new --worktree option and not need symlinks anywhere at all. Which means they no longer need to be an Administrator in order to `repo sync`.
