/// This class provides an abstraction for the path to a file or directory
/// in the operating system's filesystem and provides various basic operations
/// on it. Note that this class only represents the name of a path to a file
/// or directory which may or may not be valid for a given machine's file
/// system. A Path ensures that the name it encapsulates is syntactical valid
/// for the operating system it is running on but does not ensure correctness
/// for any particular file system. A Path either references a file or a
/// directory and the distinction is consistently maintained. Most operations
/// on the class have invariants that require the Path object to be either a
/// file path or a directory path, but not both. Those operations will also
/// leave the object as either a file path or object path. There is exactly
/// one invalid Path which is the empty path. The class should never allow any
/// other syntactically invalid non-empty path name to be assigned. Empty
/// paths are required in order to indicate an error result. If the path is
/// empty, the is_valid operation will return false. All operations will fail
/// if is_valid is false. Operations that change the path will either return
/// false if it would cause a syntactically invalid path name (in which case
/// the Path object is left unchanged) or throw an std::string exception
/// indicating the error.
