compiler/[msgs, options]: confine --listFullPaths to compiler messages (#11583)

* compiler/[msgs, options]: make toFilename independent of listFullPaths

toFilename is used mainly in codegen, as such it should not follow
--listFullPaths

* compiler/msgs: use toMsgFilename for toFileLineCol

This proc is mainly used for compiler messages, so it should follow
--listFullPaths

* compiler/msgs: remove toFileLine

unused proc

* compiler/msgs: cleanup toMsgFilename

Also improved path choosing logic, /home should now be preferred over
../home on *nix
