path_to_renpy_base() should follow symlinks in argv[0]

[Maks Verver]

In renpy.py, the function path_to_renpy_base() tries to figure out the base directory by taking os.dirname(sys.argv[0]) but this breaks when renpy.py is executed through a symlink (because then it returns the directory of the symlink, which is probably wrong). Attached is a simple patch that passes argv[0] through os.path.realpath() first.

I've committed this fix for 6.15, and will release it later today.

In the future, please file issues at our github issue tracker:
