Fixes #948.
I've modified the deduplication logic to account for the fact that directories must not have the same path as other types of files. Previously, the paths
/lib
and/lib/
would be treated differently.Two test cases are included: one for symlinks preceding directories, and one for directories preceding symlinks. In both cases, the first member is preserved and the second member with the same path is discarded as a duplicate.
