real_path: resolve symlinks by hand

The current implementation of real_path uses chdir() in order to resolve
symlinks.  Unfortunately this isn't thread-safe as chdir() affects a
process as a whole and not just an individual thread.  Instead perform
the symlink resolution by hand so that the calls to chdir() can be
removed, making real_path one step closer to being reentrant.
