Problem: There is currently no way to check if a given path is absolute or convert a relative path to an absolute path through the Lua stdlib. `vim.fs.joinpath` does not work when the path is absolute. There is also currently no way to resolve `C:foo\bar` style paths in Windows.
Solution: Add `vim.fs.abspath`, which allows converting any path to an absolute path. This also allows checking if current path is absolute by doing `vim.fs.abspath(path) == path`. It also has support for `C:foo\bar` style paths in Windows.
Problem:
Tests have lots of exec_lua calls which input blocks of code
provided as unformatted strings.
Solution:
Teach exec_lua how to handle functions.
vim.fs.root() is a function for finding a project root relative to a
buffer using one or more "root markers". This is useful for LSP and
could be useful for other "projects" designs, as well as for any plugins
which work with a "projects" concept.
Specifically, functions that are run in the context of the test runner
are put in module `test/testutil.lua` while the functions that are run
in the context of the test session are put in
`test/functional/testnvim.lua`.
Closes https://github.com/neovim/neovim/issues/27004.
Backslashes are valid characters in unix style paths.
Fix the conversion of backslashes to forward slashes in several `vim.fs`
functions when not on Windows. On Windows, backslashes will still be converted
to forward slashes.
Problem: Current implementation of "remove trailing /" doesn't
account for the case of literal '/' as path.
Solution: Remove trailing / only if it preceded by something else.

Uncrustify is sensitive to version changes, which causes friction for
contributors that doesn't have that exact version. It's also simpler to
download and install the correct version than to have bespoke version
checking.
Searching the entire repo for a directory named "contrib" causes failure
if there happens to be another subdirectory with the name "contrib".
Instead, point directly to the correct contrib directory.
Problem:
No easy way to find files under certain directories (ex: grab all files under
`test/`) or exclude the content of certain paths (ex. `build/`, `.git/`)
Solution:
Pass the full `path` as an arg to the predicate.
Extend the capabilities of is_os to detect more platforms such as
freebsd and openbsd. Also remove `iswin()` helper function as it can be
replaced by `is_os("win")`.
Makes it possible to use `vim.fs.find` to find files where only a
substring is known.
This is useful for `vim.lsp.start` to get the `root_dir` for languages
where the project-file is only known by its extension, not by the full
name.
For example in .NET projects there is usually a `<projectname>.csproj`
file in the project root.
Example:
vim.fs.find(function(x) return vim.endswith(x, '.csproj') end, { upward = true })
