auto merge of #16505 : dotdash/rust/extern_realpath, r=alexcrichton

Crates that are resolved normally have their path canonicalized and all
symlinks resolved. This does currently not happen for paths specified
using the --extern option to rustc, which can lead to rustc thinking
that it encountered two different versions of a crate, when it's
actually the same version found through different paths.

Fixes #16496
