screen recording

SUMMARY
Watch the attached screen recording please.
I have a link to my Home and "Dolphin" icon on my desktop.
When I use "Dolphin" icon to launch it, my samba share is properly detected,
but it is not when I use the link to my Home.
The samba share shown in my screen recording was created after I launch Dolphin
via "Dolphin" icon.

EXPECTED RESULT
Dolphin should always properly detect samba shares

resolve paths to their canonical representation

this resolves all symlinks along the way to reach the most canonical
representation of the path.

without this a symlink of your home you place on the desktop is a
strictly different path than your home since it is nested inside
$HOME/Desktop/$USER
