This patch entirely rewrites the parsing logic for paths. Unlike the previous
implementation this one stores information about the current state; For example
if we are in a trailing separator or a root separator. This avoids the need for
extra lookahead (and extra work) when incrementing or decrementing an iterator.
Roughly this gives us a 15% speedup over the previous implementation.
Unfortunately this implementation is still a lot slower than libstdc++'s.
Because libstdc++ pre-parses and splits the path upon construction their
iterators are trivial to increment/decrement. This makes libc++ lazy parsing
100x slower than libstdc++. However the pre-parsing libstdc++ causes a ton
of extra and unneeded allocations when constructing the string. For example
`path("/foo/bar/")` would require at least 5 allocations with libstdc++
whereas libc++ uses only one. The non-allocating behavior is much preferable
when you consider filesystem usages like 'exists("/foo/bar/")'.
Even then libc++'s path seems to be twice as slow to simply construct compared
to libstdc++. More investigation is needed about this.

Add the completed std::experimental::filesystem implementation and tests.
The implementation supports C++11 or newer.
The TS is built as part of 'libc++experimental.a'. Users of the TS need to
manually link this library. Building and testing the TS can be disabled using
the CMake option '-DLIBCXX_ENABLE_FILESYSTEM=OFF'.
Currently 'libc++experimental.a' is not installed by default. To turn on the
installation of the library use '-DLIBCXX_INSTALL_EXPERIMENTAL_LIBRARY=ON'.
