alexcrichton opened PR #14512 from alexcrichton:fix-windows-read-link to bytecodealliance:main:

Refactoring in #14370 erroneously forgot to use open_parent to actually sandbox the read_link function, and additionally even had it used that function it would not have passed tests on Windows. This commit adds a test that read_link can't escape the sandbox and it additionally restores the old implementation, with the upstream winx code inline.
