svn_dirent_is_absolute("/my/subdir/with/../../..") returns TRUE, so this patch
breaks all scenarios that assume that making the path absolute makes it
canonical. (Which we do *everywhere* in libsvn_wc)
For unix every path that starts with a "/" would return TRUE.
This check would be safe if the svn_dirent_is_absolute() function would also
check that the part after the root (which might be something like "A:/" on
Windows) was a valid relpath, but that would make it much more expensive for
the cases where it is used now.
