// SecureJoinVFS joins the two given path components (similar to [filepath.Join]) except
// that the returned path is guaranteed to be scoped inside the provided root
// path (when evaluated). Any symbolic links in the path are evaluated with the
// given root treated as the root of the filesystem, similar to a chroot. The
// filesystem state is evaluated through the given [VFS] interface (if nil, the
// standard [os].* family of functions are used).
//
// Note that the guarantees provided by this function only apply if the path
// components in the returned string are not modified (in other words are not
// replaced with symlinks on the filesystem) after this function has returned.
// Such a symlink race is necessarily out-of-scope of SecureJoinVFS.
//
// NOTE: Due to the above limitation, Linux users are strongly encouraged to
// use [OpenInRoot] instead, which does safely protect against these kinds of
// attacks. There is no way to solve this problem with SecureJoinVFS because
// the API is fundamentally wrong (you cannot return a "safe" path string and
// guarantee it won't be modified afterwards).
//
// Volume names in unsafePath are always discarded, regardless if they are
// provided via direct input or when evaluating symlinks. Therefore:
//
// "C:\Temp" + "D:\path\to\file.txt" results in "C:\Temp\path\to\file.txt"
//
// If the provided root is not [filepath.Clean] then an error will be returned,
// as such root paths are bordering on somewhat unsafe and using such paths is
// not best practice. We also strongly suggest that any root path is first
// fully resolved using [filepath.EvalSymlinks] or otherwise constructed to
// avoid containing symlink components. Of course, the root also *must not* be
// attacker-controlled.
