real_pathdup(): fix callsites that wanted it to die on error
In 4ac9006f832 (real_path: have callers use real_pathdup and
strbuf_realpath, 2016-12-12), we changed the xstrdup(real_path())
pattern to use real_pathdup() directly.
The problem with this change is that real_path() calls
strbuf_realpath() with die_on_error = 1 while real_pathdup() calls
it with die_on_error = 0. Meaning that in cases where real_path()
causes Git to die() with an error message, real_pathdup() is silent
and returns NULL instead.
The callers, however, are ill-prepared for that change, as they expect
the return value to be non-NULL (and otherwise the function died
with an appropriate error message).
Fix this by extending real_pathdup()'s signature to accept the
die_on_error flag and simply pass it through to strbuf_realpath(),
and then adjust all callers after a careful audit whether they would
handle NULLs well.
