pcap-server: remove unneeded check for null base_path

It cannot be ever NULL. It is set to a non-null path during alloc(), and
it can only be replaced with another string through VTY.

pcap-server: Resolve real path of pcap file before opening

This means we always end up with a canonicalized absolute path.

While at it, also valdiate that we can indeed resolve the path (eg. it
exists and is reachable with current process permissions) during
startup.

It is preferrable to resolve it everytime a file is opened, this allows
the user to eg. change the base-path to a different symlink it they wish
to change the base-path for new pcaps without restarting osmo-pcap.

Commit e9174f872f7f992ef6922d95e8725bcd1ccb9e75 by Pau Espin Pedrol
pcap-server: Introduce VTY cmd '[no] completed-path'

This VTY allows enabling feature to instruct osmo-pcap-server to move
the closed files (due to ration) into a separate directory.
This is useful for users who want to monitor and act on closed pcap
files to eg. generate statistics, etc.

Important: completed-path must be in the same filesystem mountpoint as
base-path, since osmo-pcap-server is actually not copying the files,
but atomically renaming the paths through rename() syscall.
