Bug #7754: Backport file.c (realpath_rec) GC fix to 1.9.3

I'm hitting a problem with ruby-1.9.3-p327 and ruby-1.9.3-p374 that I tracked down with gdb to the realpath_rec method in file.c.  The behavior I am seeing is that the char array pointed at by link_names is written over if GC runs in subsequent calls to realpath_rec.

It turns out the issue has already been resolved in trunk:

https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/projects/ruby-trunk/repository/revisions/37174/diff/file.c

I was wondering if this could be backported to 1.9.3.
