New description:
Similarly to `SAGE_ROOT`, it might be good to resolve symbolic links in
`$HOME/.sage` when assigning `DOT_SAGE`. This can be useful for example
when `$HOME/.sage` is a symbolic link to a non-existent directory (the
directory would be created later in `sage-sage`).
Probably we should use whatever solution comes from #5852.
