Description:

The existing `chroot_add_resolv_conf` function attempts to resolve symlinks in the chroot environment. But it doesn't try to resolve them in the host environment, and if `/etc/resolv.conf` is a symlink in the host environment, then `mount --bind` will fail. Additionally, if the symlink is recursive, it won't try to resolve it any further. This proposed patch adds a `resolve_link` function, which is called to resolve both `$chrootdir/etc/resolv.conf` as well as `/etc/resolv.conf` on the host. It recursively resolves the link, and keeps the target beneath the chroot, if applicable.
