Make normalizeSlashes a no-op there are no bad slashes

On Windows, there will probably be a negligible slowdown, iterating over
the pre-slash prefix of each unnormalized path (though we might come out
ahead if paths are normalized more than once).

On *nix, this saves work - 1.8s -&gt; 0.4s in the project I'm
investigating.
