path: get correct dirname for Windows root Getting the dirname of a filesystem root should return the filesystem root itself. E.g. the dirname of "/" is always "/". On Windows, we emulate this behavior and as such, we should return e.g. "C:/" if calling dirname on "C:/". But we currently fail to do so and instead return ".", as we do not check if we actually have a Windows prefix before stripping off the last directory component. Fix this by calling out to `win32_prefix_length` immediately after stripping trailing slashes, returning early if we have a prefix.
