Breaking change in path normalizeString in node 9.9.0 #19519
Description
I believe #19237 to be the culprit of this change.
I believe that PR unintentionally changed the behaviour of at least path.resolve which was not documented in the changelog.
We have a specific test around path.resolve and it started failing after 9.9.0 was released. See https://travis-ci.org/thelounge/thelounge/jobs/356475798#L582
On 9.8.0 this happens:
> require("path").resolve("a\\b")
'/home/xpaw/a\\b'
But on 9.9.0 it seems that separator is changed to the OS specific one.
> require("path").resolve("a\\b")
'/home/xpaw/a/b'
