Add support for symbolic links for content, layout, static, theme

Note: This is for the content roots only, but that should satisfy most needs.

This suggests that the content folder can be symlinked.

So my symlink points to a parent directory (I have tried other locations):

content -> ../content

It's populated with test files:

.
├── file-01.md
├── file-02.md
└── post
    ├── file-03.md
    └── file-04.md

But a build results in the following output:

$ hugo server --buildDrafts
Started building site
0 draft content
0 future content
0 pages created
0 non-page files copied
0 paginator pages created
0 tags created
0 categories created
in 21 ms
Watching for changes in /{DIRECTORY_NAME_HERE}/{data,layouts,static,themes}
Serving pages from memory
Web Server is available at http://localhost:1313/ (bind address 127.0.0.1)

I notice the content folder isn't mentioned and there's a 0 by draft content.

Am I going wrong somewhere? I'm using v0.16 on OSX.

Thanks.
