Bug Description

"PathFilter" can raise exception when executing "os.path.realpath()". As seen in the CI log [1], "os.path.realpath()" calls "os.getcwd()". This method can return the reported exception if the [2] current directory has been deleted by other process. We should catch and unset this exception.

    Implement "realpath" to retrieve the real absolute path

    This function will call "os.path.realpth" and this in turn could call
    "os.getcwd". If the current path has been deleted by other application,
    this method will raise FileNotFoundError exception. This new function
    catches and unsets this exception, returning an empty string.
