// CheckSystemDriveAndRemoveDriveLetter verifies that a path, if it includes a drive letter,

// CheckSystemDriveAndRemoveDriveLetter verifies and manipulates a Windows path.
// This is used, for example, when validating a user provided path in docker cp.
// If a drive letter is supplied, it must be the system drive. The drive letter
// is always removed. Also, it translates it to OS semantics (IOW / to \). We
// need the path in this syntax so that it can ultimately be concatenated with
// a Windows long-path which doesn't support drive-letters. Examples:
// C:			--> Fail
// C:\			--> \
// a			--> a
// /a			--> \a
// d:\			--> Fail
