Pass normalized target file paths via GDB-remote to a target and denormalize them on the target.

Summary

FileSpec.GetPath() by default applies de-normalization for a path using a native path syntax.
If host sends a path to a target we can always pass it from host in normalized form (calling FileSpec::GetPath(false)) and denormalize it on a target (FileSpec::GetPath(true)).
I appied such approach only for OpenFile and ModuleInfo requests - if it looks reasonable I will migrate other path-related protocol commands to follow the same style.

Please check what GDB does and try to do the same to keep the protocol compatible with that one (in both direction).

I haven't found any path requirements for vFile I/O packets in GDB protocol.
My proposal with this CL is to add protection to implementation layer with normalizing path on host side. If target side uses FileSpec to handle received path it can accept both formats - normalized and denormalized.

If there is no requirement in the protocol then it looks good.
