There's no reason to make them absolute, simply store in the metadata
the target file as is. This vastly simplifies the code and makes all
test pass correctly.

* xbps-pkgdb(8): this now uses the code from libxbps to check the target file
of symlinks. This fixes some false positives with symlinks.
* xbps-create(8): properly detect target of relative symlinks in some cases.
* xbps-create(8): relative target file of symlinks aren't converted to absolute
anymore. This just stores what the symlink points to, does not matter if
it's relative or absolute path.
* libxbps: make sure that symlinks with relative target are detected and removed
properly. Fix #78: https://github.com/voidlinux/xbps/issues/78
