Backport of #124867 to release/8.0
/cc @jozkee @copilot
ResolveLinkTarget_Succeeds fails with IOException: The specified network name is no longer available on Windows versions that have UNC access disabled, because SymbolicLink_ResolveLinkTarget_PathToTarget_Data was yielding UNC paths with returnFinalTarget=true, causing Windows to actually attempt to resolve \LOCALHOST\share\path.
Test only change for 8.0 (and 9.0), for 10.0 we backported the fix: #124869.
