canonicalize $SCITECOCONFIG and $SCITECOPATH variables
* this makes them absolute and also resolves links on Unix
* macros can now assume the corresponding Q-regs to be absolute
* Currently this does not make a big difference since the
working directory of the SciTECO process cannot be changed.
Once I implement a command to change the working dir, this
is essential.
