[arch-general] Inconsistencies with cc and c++ binaries

The /usr/bin/cc executable is a symbolic link to /usr/bin/gcc whereas the
/usr/bin/c++ executable appears to be a hardlink to /usr/bin/g++.

Why are the links different types? Wouldn't it be more clear to make both
symbolic links or both hard links?
