---- Concatenate directories and/or file paths into a single path with normalization
---- (e.g., `"foo/"` and `"bar"` get joined to `"foo/bar"`)
+--- Concatenates partial paths into one path. Slashes are normalized (redundant slashes are removed, and on Windows backslashes are replaced with forward-slashes)
+--- (e.g., `"foo/"` and `"/bar"` get joined to `"foo/bar"`)
+--- (windows: e.g `"a\foo\"` and `"\bar"` are joined to `"a/foo/bar"`)
