linux: Fix issue where relative symlinks were not being watched using fs watch (#22608)
Closes #22607

Symlinks can be absolute or relative. When using
[stow](https://www.gnu.org/software/stow/) to manage dotfiles, it
creates relative symlinks to the target files.

For example:  

- Original file:  `/home/tims/dotfiles/zed/setting.json`  
- Symlink path: `/home/tims/.config/zed/setting.json`  
- Target path (relative to symlink): `../../dotfiles/zed/setting.json`  

The issue is that you can’t watch the symlink path because it’s relative
and doesn't include the base path it is relative to. This PR fixes that
by converting relative symlink paths to absolute paths.

- Absolute path (after parent join):
`/home/tims/.config/zed/../../dotfiles/zed/setting.json` (This works)
- Canonicalized path (from absolute path):
`/home/tims/dotfiles/zed/setting.json` (This works too, just more
cleaner)

Release Notes:

- Fix issue where items on the Welcome page could not be toggled on
Linux when using Stow to manage dotfiles

Licensing

License information for third party dependencies must be correctly provided for CI to pass.

We use cargo-about to automatically comply with open source licenses. If CI is failing, check the following:

  • Is it showing a no license specified error for a crate you've created? If so, add publish = false under [package] in your crate's Cargo.toml.
  • Is the error failed to satisfy license requirements for a dependency? If so, first determine what license the project has and whether this system is sufficient to comply with this license's requirements. If you're unsure, ask a lawyer. Once you've verified that this system is acceptable add the license's SPDX identifier to the accepted array in script/licenses/zed-licenses.toml.
  • Is cargo-about unable to find the license for a dependency? If so, add a clarification field at the end of script/licenses/zed-licenses.toml, as specified in the cargo-about book.
