canonicalize_file_name should support win32 shortcuts

it appears that neither canonicalize nor canonicalize-lgpl support win32
shortcuts (either used directly or as used by cygwin).
it would be nice if they did - then we would be able to use
canonicalize-lgpl in clisp.

now clisp uses file w32shell.c:
http://clisp.hg.sourceforge.net/hgweb/clisp/clisp/raw-file/363f5b952505/src/w32shell.c
which works like a charm for us.
it would be wonderful if we could shift the burden of maintaining it to you.

thanks!

Lisp suffers from being twenty or thirty years ahead of time.
