 - Add `quarto.quiet` options to allow more verbose error message when `quarto_*` function are used inside other package. 
   For example, inside **pkgdown** for building Quarto vignettes. **pkgdown** sets `quiet = TRUE` internally for its call to `quarto_render()`, 
   and setting `options(quarto.quiet = TRUE)` allows to overwrite this.
+
+- `quarto_path()` now returns a normalized path with potential symlink resolved, for less confusion with `quarto_binary_sitrep()` (thanks, @jennybc).
