Execute drush with symlinked root results in recursive loop

[JTubex]

When executing drush with a symlinked root, results in a recursive loop:

Command to reproduce: drush @subsite -r /[symlinked_directory]/htdocs status --debug

I'm a little hesitant to change this - not sure about repercussions. Can you work around the issue by explicitly passing the non-symlinked path as --root?

I'd like to leave it here for folks to use as a patch if they need it.

[weitzman]

The plan is to leave this as is in Drush 11 and remove this code path in Drush 12. Drush will no longer function as a global launcher. This should avoid the situation mentioned here,

Unclear if this is still an issue after #5521
