Will warn for every recursive link



retitle 118080 symlink-up-and-and-down-segments: remove any exceptions
tags 118080 + confirmed
thanks

I tend to chose to adapt the check to disallow any symlink that is
recursive to itself (checking for indirect recursion is harder, in the
case of inter-package recursion even impossible).

Very few packages will actually need it, and if they do, they should
install an override IMHO.

Comments? Tagged 'confirmed' as to indicate this will be changed/fixed.
Remove 'confirmed' if some lint-maint disagrees.
