After preparing Git's test suite for the upcoming support for symlinks on
Windows, this patch series touches up a couple of code paths that might not
seem to be related at first, but need to be adjusted for the symlink support
to work as expected.

This is based on js/test-symlink-windows.

Changes since v1:

 * Fixed Karsten's email address
 * Instead of allowing unlimited symlink target lengths, it is now increased
   from 2*PATH_MAX to 32,767.

Thanks, this version looks good to me based on the range-diff.
