Add some tests which coreutils realpath pass but BusyBox realpath
fails (bar one). Adjust xmalloc_realpath_coreutils() so the tests
pass:
- Expand symbolic links before testing whether the last path component
exists.
- When the link target is a relative path canonicalize it by passing
it through xmalloc_realpath_coreutils() as already happens for
absolute paths.
- Ignore trailing slashes when finding the last path component and
correctly handle the case where the only slash is at the start of
the path. This requires ignoring superfluous leading slashes.
- Undo all changes to the path so error messages from the caller show
the original filename.

libbb is BusyBox's utility library. All of this stuff used to be stuffed into
a single file named utility.c. When I split utility.c to create libbb, some of
the very oldest stuff ended up without their original copyright and licensing
information (which is now lost in the mists of time). If you see something
that you wrote that is mis-attributed, do let me know so we can fix that up.
