This PR removes the check for the currently running platform/OS before checking whether the path is a windows path, beginning with a drive letter.
fixes #4322
Rationale:
I feel
Pathshould be a very agnostic "thing" andC:\temp\should be a valid (and "absolute") path on any system, even if, if I were to use it on my linux system, it would simply not work. (Probably it would, somehow, but that's besides my point.)My guess is, that while this is not a breaking change in API/ABI, it is a breaking change in "meaning" - even if I think most likely no-one is relying on the fact that currently
C:\tempis an absolute path, if cake is running on a windows system and a relative path if cake is not running on a windows system.
