Description
Hi, when I tried to use xcscope to find definition or something, it prints multiple lines of
cscope: cannot find file path/to/file
and I notice that the path/to/file is symbolic link file, I know this issue was posted https://github.com/dkogan/xcscope.el/issues/8 and it is the issue of cscope itself, but could you please remove those lines from the cscope buffer, that would be better, since I use cscope command from terminal, there is no such "cannot find" line from the result of cscope.

Research direction
Start by inspecting xcscope.el and how cscope output is placed into the cscope buffer. Reproduce the issue with a symbolic-link path, then verify that "cscope: cannot find file" lines are removed while the remaining cscope results are preserved.
