BUG: Alternative fix to bug #8423
The patch used to fix this bug used SystemTools::GetRealPath which works only for existing files. It broke the case of using the command get_filename_component for a non-existing file. Also, it changed long-standing behavior in a possibly incompatible way even for existing files. This reverts the original fix and instead updates the documentation to be consistent with the behavior.
