When we clone a local source repository to a new local destination
repository without "--shared" option, if source repository has
relative path in the alternates, the clone will fail.
The root cause is when cloning local source repository to local
destination repository, the alternates of the source repository
will be copied to the destination repository, the relative path in
the alternates is source repository to base repository rather than
destination repository to base repository, so the destination
repository get a wrong relative path in the alternates, this will
cause errors when refer to base repository in the destination
repository.
To fix it, adding a function update_alt_rel_path() to replace all
relative paths to absolute paths in the alternates of the destination
repository before destination repository use those paths to look for
the base repository.
