    CB-8757 - Resolve symlinks in order to avoid relative path issues

    Android projects residing in symlinked directories have problems similar to 
those listen in https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-8757 for iOS. I am 
proposing a better fix which is platform-agnostic and normalizes the paths as 
early as possible.

>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-8757
>             Project: Apache Cordova
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Plugman
>    Affects Versions: 3.8.0
>            Reporter: Martin Bektchiev
>
> If a Cordova iOS project is located in a path that contains symlinked 
> directories and a plugin with static libs is installed with --link, the 
> project becomes unbuildable. The reason is that apparently Xcode expands the 
> symlinks in project path and the relative paths that plugman has generated 
> become incorrect.
> Steps to reproduce:
> 1. Create a new Cordova iOS project in /tmp on a Mac
> 2. Download and place a plugin that contains a static library somewhere 
> outside of /tmp (e.g. 
> https://github.com/couchbaselabs/Couchbase-Lite-PhoneGap-Plugin)
> 3. Install it using plugman install --platform ios --project 
> /tmp/<project-dir> --plugin <plugin-dir> --link
> 3. Attempt to build - the build fails with an error: directory not found for 
> option '-L<PluginsPath><relativePathToStaticLib>', because /tmp is a symlink 
> to /private/tmp and the relative path leads to /private/Users/... instead of 
> /Users/....
