    28 /* Assuming the current directory is FD, get the symbolic link value
    29    of FILENAME as a null-terminated string and put it into a buffer.
    30    If FD is AT_FDCWD, FILENAME is interpreted relative to the current
    31    working directory, as in openat.
    32 
    33    If the link is small enough to fit into BUFFER put it there.
    34    BUFFER's size is BUFFER_SIZE, and BUFFER can be null
    35    if BUFFER_SIZE is zero.
    36 
    37    If the link is not small, put it into a dynamically allocated
    38    buffer managed by ALLOC.  It is the caller's responsibility to free
    39    the returned value if it is nonnull and is not BUFFER.
    40 
    41    The PREADLINKAT function specifies how to read links.  It operates
    42    like POSIX readlinkat()
    43    <https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/functions/readlink.html>
    44    but can assume that its first argument is the same as FD.
