8660	Use equivalent of realpath(sys.executable) in launcher	Zach Pearson	Greg Couch	Many areas of ChimeraX code depend on accurately knowing where the executable lives, but on some platforms what actually gets called to start ChimeraX can be a symbolic link to the executable, which throws that code off. Rather than putting os.path.realpath(...) everywhere, an alternative is to set argv[0] to the executable's real path in the launcher.  	defect	assigned	moderate		Core								all	ChimeraX
