// Path describes a series of steps across a tree or DAG of Node,
// where each segment in the path is a map key or list index
// (literaly, Path is a slice of PathSegment values).
// Path is used in describing progress in a traversal; and
// can also be used as an instruction for traversing from one Node to another.
// Path values will also often be encountered as part of error messages.
//
// (Note that Paths are useful as an instruction for traversing from
// *one* Node to *one* other Node; to do a walk from one Node and visit
// *several* Nodes based on some sort of pattern, look to IPLD Selectors,
// and the 'traversal/selector' package in this project.)
//
// Path values are always relative.
// Observe how 'traversal.Focus' requires both a Node and a Path argument --
// where to start, and where to go, respectively.
// Similarly, error values which include a Path will be speaking in reference
// to the "starting Node" in whatever context they arose from.
//
// The canonical form of a Path is as a list of PathSegment.
// Each PathSegment is a string; by convention, the string should be
// in UTF-8 encoding and use NFC normalization, but all operations
// will regard the string as its constituent eight-bit bytes.
//
// There are no illegal or magical characters in IPLD Paths
// (in particular, do not mistake them for UNIX system paths).
// IPLD Paths can only go down: that is, each segment must traverse one node.
// There is no ".." which means "go up";
// and there is no "." which means "stay here".
// IPLD Paths have no magic behavior around characters such as "~".
// IPLD Paths do not have a concept of "globs" nor behave specially
// for a path segment string of "*" (but you may wish to see 'Selectors'
// for globbing-like features that traverse over IPLD data).
//
// An empty string is a valid PathSegment.
// (This leads to some unfortunate complications when wishing to represent
// paths in a simple string format; however, consider that maps do exist
// in serialized data in the wild where an empty string is used as the key:
// it is important we be able to correctly describe and address this!)
//
// A string containing "/" (or even being simply "/"!) is a valid PathSegment.
// (As with empty strings, this is unfortunate (in particular, because it
// very much doesn't match up well with expectations popularized by UNIX-like
// filesystems); but, as with empty strings, maps which contain such a key
// certainly exist, and it is important that we be able to regard them!)
//
// A string starting, ending, or otherwise containing the NUL (\x00) byte
// is also a valid PathSegment.  This follows from the rule of "a string is
// regarded as its constituent eight-bit bytes": an all-zero byte is not exceptional.
// In golang, this doesn't pose particular difficulty, but note this would be
// of marked concern for languages which have "C-style nul-terminated strings".
//
// For an IPLD Path to be represented as a string, an encoding system
// including escaping is necessary.  At present, there is not a single
// canonical specification for such an escaping; we expect to decide one
// in the future, but this is not yet settled and done.
// (This implementation has a 'String' method, but it contains caveats
// and may be ambiguous for some content.  This may be fixed in the future.)

// string using "/" as a delimiter to produce a segmented Path.
// This is a handy, but not a general-purpose nor spec-compliant (!),
// way to create a Path: it cannot represent all valid paths.
//
// Multiple subsequent "/" characters will be silently collapsed.
// E.g., `"foo///bar"` will be treated equivalently to `"foo/bar"`.
// Prefixed and suffixed extraneous "/" characters are also discarded.
// This makes this constructor incapable of handling some possible Path values
// (specifically: paths with empty segements cannot be created with this constructor).
//
// There is no escaping mechanism used by this function.
// This makes this constructor incapable of handling some possible Path values
// (specifically, a path segment containing "/" cannot be created, because it
// will always be intepreted as a segment separator).
//
// No other "cleaning" of the path occurs.  See the documentation of the Path struct;
// in particular, note that ".." does not mean "go up", nor does "." mean "stay here" --
// correspondingly, there isn't anything to "clean" in the same sense as
// 'filepath.Clean' from the standard library filesystem path packages would.
//
// If the provided string contains unprintable characters, or non-UTF-8
// or non-NFC-canonicalized bytes, no remark will be made about this,
// and those bytes will remain part of the PathSegments in the resulting Path.
