gtimezone: Fix symlink checks on relative link targets

Browse Source 
The changes in 6265b2e6f7 to reject weird
`/etc/localtime` configurations where `/etc/localtime` links to another
symlink did not consider the case where the target of `/etc/localtime`
is a *relative* path. They only considered the case where the target is
absolute.

Relative paths are permissible in all symlinks. On my Fedora 36 system,
`/etc/localtime`’s target is `../usr/share/zoneinfo/Europe/London`.

Fix the check for toolbx by resolving relative paths before calling
`g_lstat()` on them.
