Subject: [Patch V4 1/1] BaseTools: Change RealPath to AbsPath

Currently the realpath is used when parse modules, which shows the path with a drive letter in build log. In Windows 'subst' comand is used to associates a path with a drive letter, when use the mapped drive letter for build, with realpath function the build log will have different disk letter info which will cause confusion. In this situation, if use adspath function to show the path info, it will keep same letter with the mapped drive letter, which avoids confusion.
This patch modifies the realpath to abspath.
