Merge branch 'js/maint-1.6.0-path-normalize'

* js/maint-1.6.0-path-normalize:
  Remove unused normalize_absolute_path()
  Test and fix normalize_path_copy()
  Fix GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES on Windows
  Move sanitary_path_copy() to path.c and rename it to normalize_path_copy()
  Make test-path-utils more robust against incorrect use

- * path = absolute path
- * buf = buffer of at least max(2, strlen(path)+1) bytes
- * It is okay if buf == path, but they should not overlap otherwise.
+ * It is okay if dst == src, but they should not overlap otherwise.
  *
- * Performs the following normalizations on path, storing the result in buf:
- * - Removes trailing slashes.
- * - Removes empty components.
+ * Performs the following normalizations on src, storing the result in dst:
+ * - Ensures that components are separated by '/' (Windows only)
+ * - Squashes sequences of '/'.
  * - Removes "." components.
  * - Removes ".." components, and the components the precede them.
- * "" and paths that contain only slashes are normalized to "/".
- * Returns the length of the output.
+ * Returns failure (non-zero) if a ".." component appears as first path
+ * component anytime during the normalization. Otherwise, returns success (0).
  *
  * Note that this function is purely textual.  It does not follow symlinks,
  * verify the existence of the path, or make any system calls.
