Description

It's been 3 years since #2774 was closed. However, as of DotNet 6 Preview 6 is still appears not to have been addressed. Since apparently you are adding Symlink support to BCL, can this be addressed perhaps via an option (`FollowSymLinks` property) in either `StaticFileOptions` or `PhysicalFileProvider`?
