patch 9.1.1507: symlinks are resolved on :cd commands

Browse Source 
Problem:  File paths change from symlink to target path after :cd command
          when editing files through symbolic links
Solution: Add "~" flag to 'cpoptions' to control symlink resolution.
          When not included (default), symlinks are resolved maintaining
          backward compatibility. When included, symlinks are preserved
          providing the improved behavior. (glepnir)
