mingw: allow `mingw_chdir()` to change to symlink-resolved directories
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.
