Change the return types of `volume_serial_number()` and `number_of_links()` from `u64` to `u32`. This makes it easier to migrate code from manually using the underlying Windows APIs with `dwVolumeSerialNumber` and `nNumberOfLinks`, which are `u32`, to using `winapi_util::file::Information` instead. This also aligns with Rust nightly's [`windows_by_handle`] feature, where the [corresponding types are `u32`]. [`windows_by_handle`]: rust-lang/rust#63010 [corresponding types are `u32`]: https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/std/os/windows/fs/trait.MetadataExt.html#tymethod.volume_serial_number

Use `winapi_util::file::information` in place of `winx::file::get_fileinfo`, which is simpler, except for needing to convert the types, which we need to do because we're ultimately using these values in the [windows `MetadataExt` trait] which uses `u32`. I submitted BurntSushi/winapi-util#7 to propose changing the types upstream. [windows `MetadataExt` trait]: https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/std/os/windows/fs/trait.MetadataExt.html

Change the return types of
volume_serial_number()andnumber_of_links()fromu64tou32. This makes it easier to migratecode from manually using the underlying Windows APIs with
dwVolumeSerialNumberand
nNumberOfLinks, which areu32, to usingwinapi_util::file::Informationinstead.This also aligns with Rust nightly's
windows_by_handlefeature,where the corresponding types are
u32.
