Path.GetFullPath() generates "invalid"/"garbage" filenames when handed DOS
paths and MONO_IOMAP is set.

This is also present in trunk r158590.

Consider the following program:


    using System;
    using System.IO;

    class Test {
        static void Main ()
        {
            foreach (var e in Directory.GetFiles (@"T:\etc")) {
                Console.WriteLine ("{0}\t{1}",
                        e, 
                        Path.GetFullPath (e));
            }
        }
    }

Compile, run:

    $ gmcs drive.cs
    $ mono drive.exe
    Unhandled Exception: System.IO.DirectoryNotFoundException: Directory
'T:\etc' not found.

Run with MONO_IOMAP=drive set, and it should list the contents of /etc. 
However, notice that the 2nd filename on each line (the output of
Path.GetFullPath()) does NOT map to /etc, but instead to a non-existent path
within the current directory (/home/jon/tmp being the current directory):

    $ MONO_IOMAP=drive mono drive.exe
    T:\etc/.pwd.lock    /home/jon/tmp/T:\etc/.pwd.lock
    T:\etc/DIR_COLORS    /home/jon/tmp/T:\etc/DIR_COLORS
    T:\etc/HOSTNAME        /home/jon/tmp/T:\etc/HOSTNAME
    ...

This is problematic with e.g. xbuild running a .csproj which contains
references to drive names (e.g. referencing T:\libs\foo.dll), as xbuild uses
Path.GetFullPath().  The result is that MONO_IOMAP is ~useless in this context.
