[Toybox] [Suggestion] Add realpath to lib/lib.c

Hi everyone,
lib/lib.c contains a bunch of simple wrappers around standard library
functions(chdir, stat, getcwd etc.). If you could similarly wrap the
realpath function[1], it would make implementing things like "pwd -P"
trivial. It would only be a 3 line patch to add this to lib/lib.c.
A major drawback though would be relying on PATH_MAX as being the
maximum possible path length.
