Subject: Fix handling of broken symlinks in filelib
This fixes a bug introduced in f11aabdc9fec593c31e6c4f3fa25c1707e9c35df where
filelib:eval_read_file_info/2 was made to use file:read_link_info/1 to never
follow symlinks. This fixed wildcard/1 but broke every other function using
eval_read_file_info/2.

+ Get information about a link or file
+
+ This function works like
+ read_file_info/1
+ except that if Filename is a symbolic link,
+ information about the link will be returned in the file_info
+ record and the type field of the record will be set to
+ symlink.
+ If Filename is not a symbolic link, this function
+ returns exactly the same result as read_file_info/1.
+ On platforms that do not support symbolic links, this function
+ is always equivalent to read_file_info/1.

Set the path of the loader
