Rollup merge of rust-lang#153272 - wmmc88:add-path-absolute-method, r=tgross35

Add `Path::absolute` method as alias for `std::path::absolute`

`Path::canonicalize()` is an alias for `fs::canonicalize()`, but there's no equivalent `Path::absolute()` for `path::absolute()`. This adds one.

Discussed in rust-lang#92750 (comment), Chris [said](rust-lang#92750 (comment)) a PR would be welcome.

Tracking issue: rust-lang#153328
