macOS temp folders are symlinks, breaking prefix checks for paths #1326
Description
On macOS, /var is a symlink to /private/var. This makes the check when removing the temp folder from the search paths fail, as Python reports the "real" path after symlink resolution. For example, we generate tempWorkingDir:
/var/folders/th/4ly8df9956bfr2r2wpd51fwc0000gn/T/gfqxpe4c.ozq
But Python says it's:
/private/var/folders/th/4ly8df9956bfr2r2wpd51fwc0000gn/T/gfqxpe4c.ozq
Which does not begin with the expected path.
Related to #1324 but not fully fixed.
