Cross-platform path support

This module implements support for two flavors of paths. `PosixPath` represents
a path on any unix-like system, whereas `WindowsPath` represents a path on
Windows. This module also exposes a typedef `Path` which is equal to the
appropriate platform-specific path variant.

Both `PosixPath` and `WindowsPath` implement a trait `GenericPath`, which
contains the set of methods that behave the same for both paths. They each also
implement some methods that could not be expressed in `GenericPath`, yet behave
identically for both path flavors, such as `.components()`.

The three main design goals of this module are 1) to avoid unnecessary
allocation, 2) to behave the same regardless of which flavor of path is being
used, and 3) to support paths that cannot be represented in UTF-8 (as Linux has
no restriction on paths beyond disallowing NUL).

## Usage

Usage of this module is fairly straightforward. Unless writing platform-specific
code, `Path` should be used to refer to the platform-native path.

Creation of a path is typically done with either `Path::new(some_str)` or
`Path::new(some_vec)`. This path can be modified with `.push()` and
`.pop()` (and other setters). The resulting Path can either be passed to another
API that expects a path, or can be turned into a `&[u8]` with `.as_vec()` or a
`Option<&str>` with `.as_str()`. Similarly, attributes of the path can be queried
with methods such as `.filename()`. There are also methods that return a new
path instead of modifying the receiver, such as `.join()` or `.dir_path()`.

Paths are always kept in normalized form. This means that creating the path
`Path::new("a/b/../c")` will return the path `a/c`. Similarly any attempt
to mutate the path will always leave it in normalized form.

When rendering a path to some form of output, there is a method `.display()`
which is compatible with the `format!()` parameter `{}`. This will render the
path as a string, replacing all non-utf8 sequences with the Replacement
Character (U+FFFD). As such it is not suitable for passing to any API that
actually operates on the path; it is only intended for display.

## Example

```rust
let mut path = Path::new("/tmp/path");
println!("path: {}", path.display());
path.set_filename("foo");
path.push("bar");
println!("new path: {}", path.display());
println!("path exists: {}", path.exists());
```
