CpSyncCheckPaths() used symlink_status() for src when dereference was true and status() when it was false, the reverse of what the option means. nodejs#59681 fixed the same swap for dest but left src as it was. A symlink to a file passed as src with dereference: true was treated as a directory, so cpSync() threw ERR_FS_EISDIR unless recursive was set, while fs.cp() copied the file. Swap the two calls and drop the check that counted a symlink as a directory, which status() can no longer return.

cpSync()checkedsrcwithsymlink_status()whendereferencewas true and withstatus()when it was false, the reverse of what the option means. #59681 fixed the same swap fordestbut leftsrcas it was. So a symlink to a file passed assrcwithdereference: truewas treated as a directory:cpSync()threwERR_FS_EISDIRunlessrecursivewas set, whilefs.cp()copied the file.This swaps the two calls and drops the check that counted a symlink as a directory, which
status()can no longer return. The new test covers bothcpSync()andfs.cp()and fails onmain.This is @npaun's fix from #60945, which the stale bot closed. I asked there on Oct 31 whether they planned to reopen it and got no reply, so I've rebased it and added the test, with them as co-author.
