daemon: Do not error out when deduplication fails due to ENOSPC.

This solves a problem whereby if /gnu/store/.links had enough entries,
ext4's directory index would be full, leading to link(2) returning
ENOSPC.

* nix/libstore/optimise-store.cc (LocalStore::optimisePath_): Upon
ENOSPC from link(2), print a message and return instead of throwing a
'SysError'.
