[PATCH 5/8] longest_ancestor_length(): always add a slash to the end of prefixes

From
Michael Haggerty <mhagger@alum.mit.edu>

Previously we stripped off any slashes that were present. Instead, add a slash if it is missing. This removes the need for an extra check that path has a slash following the prefix and makes the handling of the root directory more natural, making the way clear to use string_list_longest_prefix().
