Fixes #139800
r? @jieyouxu

My use case for ./build being a symlink is this: my "default" partition btrfs subvolume is snapshotted/backed up. I don't want to backup target-likes, so I move them to a special subvolume which isn't backed up. ./build is a symlink into that subvolume. (build.build-dir configuration is not fully sufficient, it is still nice to be able to check build files with ls ./build or call tools from there)

this avoids crashes when `./build` is a symlink to a non-existent
directory.

Fix some bootstrap papercuts

... related to jj and my `./build` symlink setup[^1].

I'm not sure if these are good solutions, but they seem to work. See commits for a bit more info.
