feat(peek): add symbolic link resolution for PDF/HTML files

Fixes #28028

When Peek encounters a symbolic link or junction point, it now resolves
the link to its target path before attempting to preview. This enables
previewing of PDF, HTML, and other files that are accessed via soft links.

Changes:
- Added SymlinkResolver helper class in Peek.Common
- Resolves both symbolic links and junction points
- Handles relative and absolute link targets
