bug#34447: `pwd` doesn't show real working directory if directory is renamed by another session |

Hi,
I found that if a session's working directory is renamed or moved, `pwd`
doesn't show the real working directory.
Example:
Session 1:
```
~/ $ mkdir test
~/ $ cd test
~/test $ touch file
```
Session 2:
```
~/ $ mv test test_2
~/ $ mkdir test
~/ $ cd test
~/ $ touch file2
~/ $ ls
file2
~/ $
```
Session 1 (still running during session 2):
```
~/test $ ls
file
~/test $ pwd
/Users/<user>/test
~/test $ realpath file
/Users/<user>/test_2/file
~/test $ realpath nonExistenFile
/Users/<user>/test_2/nonExistenFile
```
It seems that `realpath` does show the updated path, but `pwd` doesn't
Tested on MacOS (10.14.3) and Ubuntu 16.04 / 18.04
Thanks,
Chris
