The new setup hook no-broken-symlinks uncovered a dangling symlink in the venta theme package. Judging from the symlink's target, it wants to point to a certain file in the marwaita theme package. This pull request replaces the symlink with a proper one that does point into the marwaita package.

The `venta` theme package contained a broken symlink to
"../../Marwaita/plank" in "$out/share/themes/Venta/plank/plank".
From the perspective of an FHS-compatible directory structure,
this symlink certainly wants to point
to "/share/themes/Marwaita/plank".
So redirecting this symlink to point to that position
inside the `marwaita` theme package is the right thing to do.

The commit at hand thereby also fixes the `venta` package,
as dangling symlinks are no longer tolerated
due to the new `no-broken-symlinks` setup hook introduced
in commit aa1405b .
