After #145996 CLANG_RESOURCE_DIR can be an absolute path so we need to handle it correctly in the driver. llvm::sys::path::append does not append absolute paths in the way that I expected (or consistent with other similar APIs such as C++17 std::filesystem::path::append or Python os.path.join); instead, it effectively discards the leading / and appends the resulting relative path (e.g. append(P, "/bar") with P = "/foo" sets P to "/foo/bar"). Many tests start failing if I try to align llvm::sys::path::append with the other APIs because of callers that expect the existing behavior, so for now let's add a special case here for absolute resource paths, and document the behavior in Path.h.

The LLVM Compiler Infrastructure
Welcome to the LLVM project!
This repository contains the source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.
The LLVM project has multiple components. The core of the project is itself called "LLVM". This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to process intermediate representations and convert them into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer.
C-like languages use the Clang frontend. This component compiles C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ code into LLVM bitcode -- and from there into object files, using LLVM.
Other components include: the libc++ C++ standard library, the LLD linker, and more.
