Subject: feat(lua): vim.fs.slug() #41005

Problem:
Several subsystems need to derive a short, filesystem-safe identifier from an
arbitrary path, and each reinvents it ad-hoc:
- `'undodir'` and `swapfiles` encode the full path into a single filename, which
  may exceed filesystem length-limits.
- `:connect ssh://` needs the SSH ControlPath socket name to stay under the
  104-byte `sun_path` limit on macOS; today the path overflows it.
- the upcoming :terminal state dir.
- arbitrary plugin purposes.

Solution:
Provide `vim.fs.slug()`, which generates a bounded, one-way filename from an
arbitrary string. The input is normalized so equivalent paths produce the
same result. An 8-char hash is appended for uniqueness

+--- Generates a bounded, filesystem-safe filename from an arbitrary identity string.
+---
+--- - The input is normalized via |vim.fs.normalize()| so that equivalent paths produce the same
+---   result (e.g., `~/foo` and `/home/username/foo`).
+--- - `$HOME` is replaced with `~`. On Windows, UNC paths are replaced with `=unc-`.
+--- - An 8-character hex hash (|sha256()|) of the normalized input is appended to prevent
+---   collisions.
+--- - Unsafe characters (`/ \ : * ? " < > |`, whitespace, control characters) are replaced with
+---   `-`, and trailing `-` and `.` are stripped.
+--- - If `opts.maxlen` is exceeded, the result will be truncated to `{head}~~~{tail}-{hash8}`.
+--- - If the sanitized name is empty, the reserved label `=special` will be used.
+---
+--- Examples:
+---
+--- ```lua
+--- vim.fs.slug('/tmp/test/foo.md')
+---    --> "tmp-test-foo.md-{hash}"
+---
+--- vim.fs.slug('C:/src/project/main.c')
+---    --> "C--src-project-main.c-{hash}"
+---
+--- vim.fs.slug(('/a/very/long/path'):rep(10) .. '/file.txt', { maxlen = 60 })
+---    --> "a-very-long-~~~-path-a-very-long-path-file.txt-{hash}"
+---
+--- vim.fs.slug('home/username/file.txt')
+---    --> "~-file.txt-{hash}"
