fix: return full file-names from denote-org--get-backlinks-for-heading
`denote-org--get-backlinks-for-heading` is an internal function that
is used in only one place: `org-dblock-write:denote-backlinks`. This
function returns backlinks to a particular heading in the org file.
The default path -- getting backlinks to the whole file via
`denote-get-backlinks` -- returns the absolute path of the file. This
is what is expected by caller functions (eg: the
`denote--file-with-temp-buffer` call inside the macro
`denote--define-retrieve-front-matter` which defines the function
`denote-retrieve-front-matter-title-value`).
This commit fixes the attached backtrace by ensuring that
`denote-org--get-backlinks-for-heading` also returns absolute paths.
Fixes the following backtrace:
```
