[New-bugs-announce] [issue5069] Use sets instead of list in posixpath._resolve_link

[Χρήστος Γεωργίου (Christos Georgiou)]

New submission from Χρήστος Γεωργίου (Christos Georgiou) <tzot at users.sourceforge.net>:

The paths_seen object is a list; a set is more appropriate, since its
main use is a lookup as in "path in paths_seen"
