On Linux, Spawn() ignored Canonicalise()'s return value. Canonicalise() uses
realpath(), which fails for a missing file and left the output empty, so the
loader got an empty path: dlopen("") resolves to the main program's handle, and
dlsym("ComponentEntryPoint") matched $CAPI's symbol, wrongly reporting "This
file is an open.mp component." Windows was unaffected (PathCanonicalizeA is
lexical).
Spawn() now reports the missing plugin along with the path it looked for;
Canonicalise() clears its output on failure.
