ls: color each symlink-to-relative-name in / properly
In order for ls --color to color each symlink, it must form the name
of each referent and then stat it to see if the link is dangling, to
a directory, to a file, etc. When the symlink is to a relative name,
ls must concatenate the starting directory name and that relative name.
When, in addition, the starting directory was "/" or "/some-name",
the result was ill-formed, and the subsequent stat would usually fail,
making the caller color it as a dangling symlink.
* src/ls.c (make_link_name): Don't botch the case in which
dir_name(NAME) == "/" and LINKNAME is relative.
* tests/ls/root-rel-symlink-color: New file. Test for the above.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
* NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it.
