[PATCH] normalize path of repository in hot-backup.py

Hello!

Basename will return '' if you call it with '/foo/bar/', as opposed to
the UNIX basename (result will be '/foo/bar') [1]. So the 'repo_dir' in
hot-backup.py have to be normalized and absolutized before call of
basename. With this patch hot-backup.py will work correctly in this case:
"./hot-backup.py /repo_path/repo/ /backup_dir".

BR, Jani

Log:

The repo_dir have to be normalized and absolutized before call of
basename. Otherwise "./hot-backup.py /repo_path/repo/ /backup_dir" won't
work.

* tools/backup/hot-backup.py.in:
  Added os.path.abspath() call before os.path.basename
