Subject: [PATCH] Win32: mingw_chdir: change to symlink-resolved directory

If symlinks are enabled, resolve all symlinks when changing directories,
as required by POSIX.

Note: Git's real_path() function bases its link resolution algorithm on
this property of chdir(). Unfortunately, the current directory on Windows
is limited to only MAX_PATH (260) characters. Therefore using symlinks and
long paths in combination may be problematic.

Note: GetFinalPathNameByHandleW() was introduced with symlink support in
Windows Vista. Thus, for compatibility with Windows XP, we need to load it
dynamically and behave gracefully if it isnt's available.
