// Clean returns the shortest path name equivalent to path
// by purely lexical processing. It applies the following rules
// iteratively until no further processing can be done:
//
//      1. Replace multiple Separator elements with a single one.
//      2. Eliminate each . path name element (the current directory).
//      3. Eliminate each inner .. path name element (the parent directory)
//         along with the non-.. element that precedes it.
//      4. Eliminate .. elements that begin a rooted path:
//         that is, replace "/.." by "/" at the beginning of a path,
//         assuming Separator is '/'.
//
// The returned path ends in a slash only if it represents a root directory,
// such as "/" on Unix or `C:\` on Windows.
//
// Finally, any occurrences of slash are replaced by Separator.
//
// If the result of this process is an empty string, Clean
// returns the string ".".
