As discussed in jestjs/jest#9776

Docs: https://nodejs.org/api/fs.html#fs_fs_realpath_native_path_options_callback

didn't bother with process.bindings as we really shouldn't use those

As an aside, it might make sense to make maybeUnwrapSymlink pluggable like readFile, isFile and isDirectory is already. Those 3 allow you to avoid the real fs if necessary, but the realpath call does not. I can open up a separate issue for that?

A separate issue (or even a PR) sounds good.

Assuming tests pass, and aren't much slower :-)

On my machine npmt test seems a tiny bit faster, not sure how much of a benchmark that is, though. probably not at all 😀

when all the optionals are done, we can compare the "total time" on the travis builds :-p

Looks like travis took 3:34:08 (214.13 min) on master, and 2:33:30 (153.5 min) on the PR, across 176 jobs, so that's about 28% faster, or about 1min 13s vs 52s - seems like an improvement to me!

Appveyor needed a few reruns, so we'll see how that shakes out.

@ljharb one thing - using the native realpath might cause issues, see nodejs/node#7175

From what I gather require uses the native realpath (although I haven't verified by looking at source code) so I still think it's safe (or even correct) to change, but a heads up seems warranted in any case

It looks like perhaps using https://www.npmjs.com/package/fs.realpath would handle those issues, when using the native realpath?
