8/// Drops the `\\?\` extended-length prefix Windows' `canonicalize` adds
9///
10/// `std::fs::canonicalize` returns a verbatim path on Windows, so a binary at
11/// `C:\tools\dog.exe` comes back as `\\?\C:\tools\dog.exe`. That form is
12/// correct and every Win32 call accepts it, which is exactly why it leaks
13/// quietly: nothing inside shep breaks, and it surfaces only once the path
14/// reaches something that is not Win32. Two such places are already known.
15/// Node's `require` reads the leading `\\` as a UNC share and fails on `C:`.
16/// And `shep adopt` records the vetted binary in `shep.toml`, where the prefix
17/// is simply noise in a file an operator edits by hand.
18///
19/// So this is for paths that LEAVE shep: written to config, shown to an
20/// operator, or handed to another program. Paths that stay inside and are
21/// compared against each other must not use it. `serve`'s docroot containment
22/// check is the case that matters, where both sides being canonical is the
23/// security property, and rewriting one side would weaken it.
24///
25/// Only `\\?\C:\` is unwrapped, because that is the one shape `canonicalize`
26/// produces for a local file. A verbatim UNC path (`\\?\UNC\server\share`)
27/// is left alone: no host here can mount a share to test that branch, and an
28/// unexercised guess is worth less than a documented gap.
29///
30/// **A path long enough to need the prefix is out of scope.** Above `MAX_PATH`
31/// the prefix is load-bearing rather than decorative, and stripping it can
32/// produce a path that no longer opens. Nothing in shep's own layout comes
33/// close, and the alternative is a conditional rule whose behavior changes at
34/// a length nobody can see, so the simple rule is the one kept.
