run-tests: also follow symlink when update PATH with 'run-tests.py' dir

I'm using 'run-tests.py' from my '$PATH' and use a symlink to get 'run-tests.py'
to in that '$PATH'. There is a handful of test helpers (like f) that needs to be
in the '$PATH' for the test to run, and they are expected to live next to the
'run-tests.py' binary. Using a symlink confuses this logic, so we add to the
'$PATH' both the 'run-tests.py' executable directory, and the actual file
location direction.

#!/usr/bin/env python

import errno, os, sys

for f in sys.argv[1:]:
    try:
        print f, '->', os.readlink(f)
    except OSError, err:
        if err.errno != errno.EINVAL:
            raise
        print f, 'not a symlink'

sys.exit(0)
