[issue42458] Pathlib resolve() on Mac Catalina prepends secret path

Thanks @ronaldoussoren. This bug report is flawed for a couple reasons, notwithstanding some assumptions I made incorrectly. (SIP actually makes "/home" a symlink so that resolved correctly.) So I am retracting it as-is because I can't edit the original report. 

The documentation for the behavior of resolve() is talking about using resolve() in the PurePath section. And, resolve() is removing "/../" when the path doesn't really exist locally. I'll open clearer tickets about those when I have a chance.
