Motivation for this change

This is a port of #71428 to release-19.09.

On start, unicorn, sidekiq and other parts running ruby code emits quite a few warnings similar to

/var/gitlab/state/config/application.rb:202: warning: already initialized constant Gitlab::Application::LOOSE_EE_APP_ASSETS
/nix/store/ysb0lgbzxp7a9y4yl8d4f9wrrzy9kafc-gitlab-ee-12.3.5/share/gitlab/config/application.rb:202: warning: previous definition of LOOSE_EE_APP_ASSETS was here
/var/gitlab/state/lib/gitlab.rb:38: warning: already initialized constant Gitlab::COM_URL
/nix/store/ysb0lgbzxp7a9y4yl8d4f9wrrzy9kafc-gitlab-ee-12.3.5/share/gitlab/lib/gitlab.rb:38: warning: previous definition of COM_URL was here

This seems to be caused by the same ruby files being evaluated multiple times due to the paths being different - sometimes they're loaded using the direct path and sometimes through a symlink, due to our split between config and package data. To fix this, we make sure that the offending files in the state directory always reference the store path, regardless of that being the real file or a symlink.

Things done
  • Tested using sandboxing (nix.useSandbox on NixOS, or option sandbox in nix.conf on non-NixOS)
  • Built on platform(s)
    • NixOS
    • macOS
    • other Linux distributions
  • Tested via one or more NixOS test(s) if existing and applicable for the change (look inside nixos/tests)
  • Tested compilation of all pkgs that depend on this change using nix-shell -p nix-review --run "nix-review wip"
  • Tested execution of all binary files (usually in ./result/bin/)
  • Determined the impact on package closure size (by running nix path-info -S before and after)
  • Ensured that relevant documentation is up to date
  • Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.
