path.c: refactor relative_path(), not only strip prefix
Original design of relative_path() is simple, just strip the prefix
(*base) from the absolute path (*abs).
In most cases, we need a real relative path, such as: ../foo,
../../bar. That's why there is another reimplementation
(path_relative()) in quote.c.
Borrow some codes from path_relative() in quote.c to refactor
relative_path() in path.c, so that it could return real relative
path, and user can reuse this function without reimplementing
his/her own. The function path_relative() in quote.c will be
substituted, and I would use the new relative_path() function when
implementing the interactive git-clean later.
Different results for relative_path() before and after this refactor:
abs path base path relative (original) relative (refactor)

(null) (null) (null) ./
(null) (empty) (null) ./
(null) /a/b (segfault) ./
You may notice that return value "." has been changed to "./".
It is because:
* Function quote_path_relative() in quote.c will show the relative
path as "./" if abs(in) and base(prefix) are the same.
* Function relative_path() is called only once (in setup.c), and
it will be OK for the return value as "./" instead of ".".
