[issue18807] Allow venv to create copies, even when symlinks are supported

Vinay Sajip added the comment:

While you may be right about line 215, line 147 isn't analogous, because in the latter case it's a symlink to a directory. We don't really want the entire lib directory tree *copied* into lib64 (and in any case, the populating of lib will happen much after venv creatuion, when things are installed into the venv: a copy is of no use here).
