Okay, it looks like we already have buildNormalizedPath which does some of what
needs to be done for canonicalizing a path (it gets rid of ., .., and / from a
path), but it doesn't follow symlinks, so it doesn't actually get a canonical
path (every file should have one and only one canonical path). So, this request
isn't quite as critical as I was thinking that it was, but we do still need a
function for returning the canonical path of a file or directory.
