/// A slice of a path (akin to [`str`]).
///
/// This type supports a number of operations for inspecting a path, including
/// breaking the path into its components (separated by `/` on Unix and by either
/// `/` or `\` on Windows), extracting the file name, determining whether the path
/// is absolute, and so on.
///
/// This is an *unsized* type, meaning that it must always be used behind a
/// pointer like `&` or [`Box`]. For an owned version of this type,
/// see [`Utf8PathBuf`].
///
/// # Examples
///
/// ```
/// use typed_path::{Utf8Path, Utf8UnixEncoding};
///
/// // NOTE: A path cannot be created on its own without a defined encoding,
/// //       but all encodings work on all operating systems, providing the
/// //       ability to parse and operate on paths independently of the
/// //       compiled platform
/// let path = Utf8Path::<Utf8UnixEncoding>::new("./foo/bar.txt");
///
/// let parent = path.parent();
/// assert_eq!(parent, Some(Utf8Path::new("./foo")));
///
/// let file_stem = path.file_stem();
/// assert_eq!(file_stem, Some("bar"));
///
/// let extension = path.extension();
/// assert_eq!(extension, Some("txt"));
/// ```
///
/// In addition to explicitly using [`Utf8Encoding`]s, you can also
/// leverage aliases available from the crate to work with paths:
///
/// ```
/// use typed_path::{Utf8UnixPath, Utf8WindowsPath};
///
/// // Same as Utf8Path<Utf8UnixEncoding>
/// let path = Utf8UnixPath::new("/foo/bar.txt");
///
/// // Same as Utf8Path<Utf8WindowsEncoding>
/// let path = Utf8WindowsPath::new(r"C:\foo\bar.txt");
/// ```
///
/// To mirror the design of Rust's standard library, you can access
/// the path associated with the compiled rust platform using [`Utf8NativePath`],
/// which itself is an alias to one of the other choices:
///
/// ```
/// use typed_path::Utf8NativePath;
///
/// // On Unix, this would be Utf8UnixPath aka Utf8Path<Utf8UnixEncoding>
/// // On Windows, this would be Utf8WindowsPath aka Utf8Path<Utf8WindowsEncoding>
/// let path = Utf8NativePath::new("/foo/bar.txt");
