13485	parent_path() edge case returns wrong result on Windows	Alex Weiss <alexweiss86@…>	Beman Dawes	"The path ""C:\\"", while unusual, is legal in Windows and equivalent to ""C:\"". According to the path decomposition table, that means that 
{{{
parent_path(L""C:\\\\"")
}}}
should return ""C:"". However, it returns ""C:\"".

The same is true for every variation with more than one trailing separator (preferred or generic).
