For now, `expandSymlinks()` can handle only symlinks with lengths up to 1024. We can improve this logic and retry inside a loop with increasing lengths until we succeed. The same approach is used in [Go](377646589d/src/os/file_unix.go (L446)), [Rust](785eb65377/library/std/src/sys/pal/unix/fs.rs (L1700)) and [Nim's `getCurrentDir()`](https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/blob/devel/lib/std/private/ospaths2.nim#L877), so maybe it's a good idea to use the same logic in `expandSymlinks()` also.
