canonicalize_file_name should support win32 shortcuts

it appears that neither canonicalize nor canonicalize-lgpl support win32 shortcuts (either used directly or as used by cygwin). it would be nice if they did - then we would be able to use canonicalize-lgpl in clisp. now clisp uses file w32shell.c: http://clisp.hg.sourceforge.net/hgweb/clisp/clisp/
