Public bug reported:
Running charm 2.2.2/charm-tools 2.2.3 via latest stable snap, I find
that the symlinks in the hooks and actions directories of my charms end
up deferenced such that the resulting charm has X copies of the file
that was originally symlinked to things such as hooks/config-changed or
actions/pause.
As an example:
Charm Source:

This both makes charm authoring/debugging more difficult and adds unnecessary
size to the built charm.
