A leading "." component (e.g. "." or "./x") is no longer classified as a
rooted path.
Add doctests and unit tests illustrating the default eqPath laws around a
leading "./" being a redundant "." segment:

"C:" is conceptually a directory (the current directory in drive C:) but
cannot carry a trailing separator: "C:\\" is the absolute drive root, not
the current directory. Document this in the WindowsPath isRooted doc and
the FileSystem.Path design doc, and use "C:." rather than "C:./" in the
new equality law.
