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. Reported by Mike Frysinger in http://bugs.gnu.org/11453 Bug introduced by commit v8.16-23-gbcb9078.
