Bug 18913: Allow symbolic link in /etc/koha/sites

This patch makes the koha-* scripts follow symbolic links when querying for
Koha instances. Without it, it is not possible to define instances outside the
/etc/koha/sites directory,

To test:
- Create a symlink in /etc/koha/sites:
  $ sudo ln -s /tmp /etc/koha/sites/test
- Test the original is_instance function:
  $ . /usr/share/koha/bin/koha-functions.sh
  $ is_instance test && echo success || echo failure
=> FAIL: symlinks are not considered instance names (i.e. failure is printed)
- Apply this patch
- Update the koha-functions.sh file:
  $ perl misc4dev/cp_debian_files.pl
- Test is_instance again:
  $ . /usr/share/koha/bin/koha-functions.sh
  $ is_instance test && echo success || echo failure
=> SUCCESS: symlinks are considered instance names (i.e. success is printed)
- Sign off :-D
