#27785: updateRustDependencies.sh shouldn't use realpath

updateRustDependencies.sh uses the `realpath` command. macOS doesn't seem
to have it, and POSIX doesn't specify it.
Maybe we should use something like `(cd $x && pwd -P)` instead for greater
portability. (Though older shells and OSes might not have the `-P` option
to `pwd`, it is POSIX.)
Alternatively, confirm that the current directory is a "reasonable" place
to run the script from, and use relative pathnames.
