Summary

0000281: VFS Merge Path and getRealPath() bug

Description

RSN-316
Assuming webapps setup like so:
    <web-app id="/foo" document-directory="merge:(/a;/b)"/>
    <web-app id="/bar" document-directory="/c"/>
With the following files:
    /a/a.txt
    /b/b.txt
    /c/c.txt
Asking for:
    context.getContext("/foo").getRealPath("/a.txt")
will return "/a/a.txt" as expected. Similarly:
    context.getContext("/foo").getRealPath("/b.txt")
will return "/b/b.txt" as expected. However, asking for:
    context.getContext("/foo").getRealPath("/nosuchfile.txt")
returns ".//nosuchfile.txt", which is definately not expected. If you ask for the same type of thing from a webapp that does not use the vfs merge path feature, like so:
    context.getContext("/bar").getRealPath("/nosuchfile.txt")
you get "/c/nosuchfile.txt", which is what I would expect. The /foo webapp with the vfs merge path should behave similarly. While I realize there is ambiguity there, I think it would be more benign to simply pick a path from the merge list (any path really, though the first one would seem logical) instead of a completely arbitrary path.

Steps To Reproduce
