Now getAbsolutePath procedure, which make a path passed as argument an
absolute path, check the current path of the interpreted modulefile or
modulerc rather always taking the current path of the module command
execution.
So a modulefile or modulerc can use relative paths based on a
determistic way as it is now based on their location. Previously it was
not possible as relative paths were dependent of the location from where
the module command was executed.
If ModulesCurrentModulefile variable is not empty, getAbsolutePath nows
it is called during a modulefile/modulerc interpretation, so it takes
the directory name of this ModulesCurrentModulefile as current working
directory.

It uses an embedded Tcl intrepretor, with a few extensions. Therefore,
