add documentation for follow-symlink to use a symlink for the job

@omehrabi omehrabi requested a review from a team as a code owner May 24, 2023 18:08

In case the associated script file is in a different location from the manifest you could use a symlink
to refering the script. To change the default behavior for using the symlink and change where to execute
the script you need to pass --follow-symlink.

In case the associated job file is in a different location from the manifest you can use a symlink
to refer to the job.py file. By default the job will be executed in the directory where the manifest
file is located. To change the execution directory and use the symlink target directory to execute
the script you need to pass --follow-symlink.

Please show symlink from the filesystem, e.g.

ls -l job.py
lrwxr-xr-x  1 admin  wheel  20 Nov 29 11:36 job.py -> /tmp/job/path/job.py

This job will be executed in the /tmp/job/path directory.
