lfs: only hardlink between the usercache and local store if the blob verifies This fixes the issue where verify (and other read commands) would propagate corrupt blobs. I originalled coded this to only hardlink if 'verify=True' for store.read(), but then good blobs weren't being linked, and this broke a bunch of tests. (The blob in repo5 that is being corrupted seems to be linked into repo5 in the loop running dumpflog.py prior to it being corrupted, but only if verify=False is handled too.) It's probably better to do a one time extra verification in order to create these files, so that the repo can be copied to a removable drive. Adding the same check to store.write() was only for completeness, but also needs to do a one time extra verification to avoid breaking tests.

If you can't run the entire testsuite for some reason (it can be
difficult on Windows), please at least run `contrib/check-code.py` on
any files you've modified and run `python contrib/check-commit` on any
commits you've made (for example, `python contrib/check-commit
273ce12ad8f1` will report some style violations on a very old commit).
