functions: do not create self-referential symlinks

nl6720 requested to merge nl6720/mkinitcpio:add_file-dest-matches-srcrealpath into master

Compare the symlink target with the destination in add_file. If they match, simply place the file as a regular file in the specified destination.

Additionally, move the "overwriting/adding file" message right before the file is added. Showing the message before add_dir runs makes the verbose output confusing, since it says that it adds the directory after the file it is in.

Fixes FS#76812. Fixes #154 (closed).
