Yes, noarch are supposed to be hardlinked already.
But it could make the upload process simpler to have noarch in a
separate directory (no need to hardlink to all arches), and genhdlist2
faster (by splitting out a noarch hdlist).

BTW, we could also consider migrating to a PLF-like tree structure,
which looks better structured:

media/
  main/
    release/
      binary/
        noarch/
        arch1/
        arch2/
        ...
      debug/
        arch1/
        arch2/
        ...
      source/
    testing/
      ...
    updates/
      ...
    backports/
  contrib/
     ...
  non-free/
     ...
