Too many levels of symbolic links

[jhagege]

Hi, thanks for the great library.

When the folder tree contains a symlink loop, dirhash recurses indefinitely and raises: OSError: [Errno 62] Too many levels of symbolic links: '<…>/test/fixtures/e/symlink'

This is the function call I am using:

    dirhash_result = dirhash(
        folder_path,
        "sha256",
        match=["*"],
        ignore=default_excludes,
        linked_dirs=False,
        linked_files=False,
        allow_cyclic_links=True,
    )

Steps to Reproduce
Point to a directory that includes a symlink cycle. For example: (attaching here for reproducibility - tar-fs_2.1.1-sp1_CVE-2024-12905.zip)

    tar-fs_2.1.1-sp1_CVE-2024-12905/
      source/
        test/
          fixtures/
            e/
              symlink/  →  ../../../../../…   (cycle)

Expected Behavior
should handle symlink loops gracefully—by skipping symlinks entirely based on the parameters of the function call.

Would appreciate guidance on how to fix, thanks!
