deduplication: Gracefully handle ENOSPC raised by 'link' calls.

Reported by Andreas Enge <andreas@enge.fr>
in <https://bugs.gnu.org/33676>.

* guix/store/deduplication.scm (replace-with-link): Catch ENOSPC around
'get-temp-link'.  Do nothing when 'get-temp-link' throws ENOSPC.  Move
code to restore PARENT's permissions outside of 'catch'.
* tests/store-deduplication.scm ("deduplicate, ENOSPC"): New test.
