Symlink into subdirectory of repo doesn't show path in prompt

Current Behavior

If you have a symlink that points sideways into a subdirectory of a repo, cd ing into results in no path being shown in the starship prompt at all.

Example:

1. ~/code/me is the repo
2. ~/code/me/private is a directory in that repo
3. ~/code/example symlinks into ~/code/me/private
4. If ~/code/example is your CWD you will see no preview directory

Expected Behavior

In example step 4 I would expect ~/code/example to be shown as my path in the prompt

Possible Solution

From what I can see, it looks like https://github.com/starship/starship/blob/e939a19ab777d64be2003c6f9c4c683ab1292945/src/modules/directory.rs#L115 hits the None case in my example? We could just default to prefix + dir_string.as_str() like some of the other fallback branches.
