[include-cleaner] Unify symlink handling (#102615)

We were using tryGetRealPathName in certain places, which resolves
symlinks (sometimes). This was resulting in discrepancies in behavior,
depending on how a file was first reached.

This path migrates all usages of tryGetRealPathName to regular getName
instead.

This implies one backward incompatible change for header-filtering. Our
ignore-header option used to filter against suffixes of absolute paths,
whereas now filter can receive working-directory relative paths in some
cases, possibly braking existing filters.
Chances of really braking users is pretty low:
- We'll still filter against absolute paths when header is outside the
  working directory (e.g. /usr/bin/include/some/linux/header.h.)
- Most projects run builds in a working directory that's nested inside
  the repository, hence relative paths still contain all the segments
  relative to repository root and anything else is unlikely to be
  meaningful. e.g. if a header is in
  `$HOME/work/llvm-project/clang-tools-extra/header.h` with builds being
  run in `$home/work/llvm-project/build`, we'll still filter against
  `../clang-tools-extra/header.h` which has all the useful segments as a
  suffix.
- This is also a change in how we handle symlinks, but this is aligned
  with what we do in rest of our tools (clangd, tidy checks etc.). We
  tend to not resolve any symlinks for the file.

The LLVM Compiler Infrastructure

OpenSSF Scorecard OpenSSF Best Practices libc++

Welcome to the LLVM project!

This repository contains the source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.

The LLVM project has multiple components. The core of the project is itself called “LLVM”. This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to process intermediate representations and convert them into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer.

C-like languages use the Clang frontend. This component compiles C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ code into LLVM bitcode -- and from there into object files, using LLVM.

Other components include: the libc++ C++ standard library, the LLD linker, and more.
