Bug description:
I tried to map a folder with qemu-kvm qemu-kvm-0.13.0-rc1-3-gc9c2179 (this is 
v0.13.0-rc1-16667-gc9c2179). I mounted it first in passthrough mode and saw all 
symlinks as expected. Then I used mapped and noticed that the target of a 
symlink changed to the actual data inside the linked folder as target instead 
of the target filename.

So for example if you have a file abc with the content "omg, this is important 
stuff" and a symlink lnkme -> abc then it wiill look inside the kvm with 
mounted 9p virtio (mapped) like that:

lnkme -> omg, this is important stuff
