CompilationDatabaseProjectManager: Symbolic link source files added with their real path

I have a project where a lot of my source files are linked to a different directory.

My "compile_commands.json" file has the symbolic link path, but when I open the project in Qt Creator the file will be shown with the "real" path, as if

realpath --relative-to=$(pwd) /full/path/taken/from/compile_commands.json/file

had been called on the file.

This is confusing, as the filenames is not always the same, i.e.

src/source.cpp -> ../path/to/some_feature.cpp

The above example will show up in Qt Creator as

path/to/some_feature.cpp

where I expect

src/source.cpp
