[PATCH 2/2] Kill off get_relative_cwd()

["Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy" <pclouds@gmail.com>]

Function dir_inside_of() does something similar (correctly), but looks
easier to understand and does not bundle cwd to its business. Given
get_relative_cwd's only user is is_inside_dir, we can kill it for
good.

 OK I stared at the code long enough and have come to the conclusion
 that your fix is essentially fbbb4e1 (get_cwd_relative(): do not
 misinterpret root path - 2010-11-20) but the structure is similar to
 my old is_subdir_or_same() (now dir_inside_of). So let's kill that
 cryptic switch.
