color: Fix an infinite loop colorizing some invalid paths

Previously, given

    $ touch file
    $ ln -s file/file notdir
    $ bfs notdir/file

bfs would loop forever when printing the error message, since it
expected stripping the trailing slash from "notdir/" to fix the ENOTDIR
error, but the broken symlink still gave the same error.

Fixes: b4c3201 ("color: Only highlight the trailing slash on ENOTDIR")
