/*
 *---------------------------------------------------------------------------
 *
 * TclFSNormalizeAbsolutePath --
 *
 * Description:
 *	Takes an absolute path specification and computes a 'normalized'
 *	path from it.
 *	
 *	A normalized path is one which has all '../', './' removed.
 *	Also it is one which is in the 'standard' format for the native
 *	platform.  On MacOS, Unix, this means the path must be free of
 *	symbolic links/aliases, and on Windows it means we want the
 *	long form, with that long form's case-dependence (which gives
 *	us a unique, case-dependent path).
 *	
 *	The behaviour of this function if passed a non-absolute path
 *	is NOT defined.
 *	
 *	pathPtr may have a refCount of zero, or may be a shared
 *	object.
 *
 * Results:
 *	The result is returned in a Tcl_Obj with a refCount of 1,
 *	which is therefore owned by the caller.  It must be
 *	freed (with Tcl_DecrRefCount) by the caller when no longer needed.
 *
 * Side effects:
 *	None (beyond the memory allocation for the result).
 *
 * Special note:
 *	This code was originally based on code from Matt Newman and
 *	Jean-Claude Wippler, but has since been totally rewritten by
 *	Vince Darley to deal with symbolic links.
