bug#5297: 23.1; vc: fails to follow symlinks inside HOME

[Yuya Nishihara <yuya@tcha.org>]

When detecting vc backend, vc-find-file-hook passes buffer-file-truename
to vc-backend function. However, because buffer-file-truename is *abbreviated*,
following vc-hg-registered or vc-git-registered just fails.

Also it seems bad to test equalness of buffer-file-name
and buffer-file-truename. Maybe buffer-file-name is expanded,
but buffer-file-truename is abbreviated.
