Similarly, attributes of the path can be queried with methods such as `.filename()`. There are also methods that return a new path instead of modifying the receiver, such as `.join()` or `.dir_path()`. +Paths are always kept in normalized form. This means that creating the path +`Path::from_str("a/b/../c")` will return the path `a/c`.
