/**
* An object representation of a node path within a repository.
*
* A path consists of zero or more segments that can contain any characters, although the string representation may require some
* characters to be encoded. For example, if a path contains a segment with a forward slash, then this forward slash must be
* escaped when writing the whole path to a string (since a forward slash is used as the {@link #DELIMITER delimiter} between
* segments).
*
*
* Because of this encoding and decoding issue, there is no standard representation of a path as a string. Instead, this class
* uses {@link TextEncoder text encoders} to escape certain characters when writing to a string or unescaping the string
* representation. These encoders and used only with individual segments, and therefore are not used to encode the
* {@link #DELIMITER delimiter}. Three standard encoders are provided, although others can certainly be used:
*
* - {@link #JSR283_ENCODER Jsr283Encoder} - an encoder and decoder that is compliant with JSR-283 by converting the reserved characters (namely '*', '/', ':', '[', ']'
* and '|') to their unicode equivalent.
*
* - {@link #URL_ENCODER UrlEncoder} - an encoder and decoder that is useful for converting text to be used within a URL, as
* defined by Section 2.3 of RFC 2396. This encoder does encode many characters
* (including '`', '@', '#', '$', '^', '&', '{', '[', '}', ']', '|', ':', ';', '\', '"', '<', ',', '>', '?', '/', and ' '), while
* others are not encoded (including '-', '_', '.', '!', '~', '*', '\', ''', '(', and ')'). Note that only the '*' character is
* the only character reserved by JSR-283 that is not encoded by the URL encoder.
* - {@link #NO_OP_ENCODER NoOpEncoder} - an {@link TextEncoder encoder} implementation that does nothing.
*
*
*
* This class simplifies working with paths and using a Path is often more efficient that processing and
* manipulating the equivalent String. This class can easily {@link #iterator() iterate} over the segments, return
* the {@link #size() number of segments}, {@link #compareTo(Path) compare} with other paths, {@link #resolve(Path) resolve}
* relative paths, return the {@link #getParent() ancestor (or parent)}, determine whether one path is an
* {@link #isAncestorOf(Path) ancestor} or {@link #isDescendantOf(Path) decendent} of another path, and
* {@link #getCommonAncestor(Path) finding a common ancestor}.
*
