[svn-r22057] Purpose:
Fix for HDFFV-7835 h5diff: incorrect result for comparing the two same type symlinks as dangling links. Description: When two symbolic dangling links are compared with --follow-symlinks option, the result should be same. It works for comparing two files, but didn't work for comparing two objects. Test cases were added and tagged with jira#. Merged from HDF5 trunk r22038. Tested: jam (linux32-LE), koala (linux64-LE), ostrich (linuxppc64-BE), tejeda (mac32-LE), linew (solaris-BE), Windows (32-LE cmake), Cmake (jam)
