Name make_*_path functions more accurately

Rename the make_*_path functions so it's clearer what they do, in
particlar make clear what the differnce between make_absolute_path and
make_nonrelative_path is by renaming them real_path and absolute_path
respectively. make_relative_path has an understandable name and is
renamed to relative_path to maintain the name convention.

The function calls have been replaced 1-to-1 in their usage.
