    fish: edit: write to the real file name
    
    When saving, resolve the path of the file being edited and use that as
    real target to write to. Otherwise, if the file name is a symlink then
    it will be replaced by a regular file with the new content, leaving the
    old file untouched.
    
    Extend test-edit.sh to check for this situation.
