/// # Errors
///
/// An error will be returned in the following situations:
///
/// * `src` does not point to an existing file.
/// * Some other I/O error occurred.
///
/// # Examples
///
/// ```no_run
/// # fn main() -> std::io::Result<()> { async_std::task::block_on(async {
/// #
/// use async_std::fs;
///
/// fs::hard_link("a.txt", "b.txt").await?;
/// #
/// # Ok(()) }) }
