Summary: This completes the work started in D4227 by using just 'getExecutablePath' in ghc and ghc-pkg when building with base >= 4.11.0. On the long term, we will be able to simply kill the existing code that follows (or not) symlinks and just get this behaviour for free from getExecutable. For now we however have to require base >= 4.11.0 to be able to just use getExecutablePath under Windows, and use the current code when building with an older base. Original code by @alpmestan commandeering since patch has been stale and bug remains open.
