/* On most hosts, we rely on canonicalize_file_name to compute
   the FILENAME's realpath.

   But the situation is slightly more complex on Windows, due to some
   versions of GCC which were reported to generate paths where
   backslashes (the directory separator) were doubled.  For instance:
      c:\\some\\double\\slashes\\dir
   ... instead of ...
      c:\some\double\slashes\dir
   Those double-slashes were getting in the way when comparing paths,
   for instance when trying to insert a breakpoint as follow:
      (gdb) b c:/some/double/slashes/dir/foo.c:4
      No source file named c:/some/double/slashes/dir/foo.c:4.
      (gdb) b c:\some\double\slashes\dir\foo.c:4
      No source file named c:\some\double\slashes\dir\foo.c:4.
   To prevent this from happening, we need this function to always
   strip those extra backslashes.  While canonicalize_file_name does
   perform this simplification, it only works when the path is valid.
   Since the simplification would be useful even if the path is not
   valid (one can always set a breakpoint on a file, even if the file
   does not exist locally), we rely instead on GetFullPathName to
   perform the canonicalization.  And then, we normalize backslashes
   to forward slashes.  */
