• SR-13996 [Windows] Package dependency with path to parent dir resolves incorrectly

Issue Description:

When I specify a local dependency as .package(path: "../other-package") (or using a double backslash instead of a forward slash) the .. seems to get ignored.

The output of swift package describe --type json and swift package dump-package shows the path to other-package as:

C:\Users\me\path-to-my-package\other-package

and not:

C:\Users\me\path-to\other-package
