The current Abs docs say:

	// If the path is not absolute it will be joined with the current
	// working directory to turn it into an absolute path.

The empty string is not an absolute path, so the docs suggest that the
empty string should be joined with the current working directory to
turn it into an absolute path. This was already the case on all
platforms other than Windows. Per the decision in issue #24441,
this change makes it work on Windows too.

Since the empty string is not a valid path for the purposes of calling
os.Stat on it, we can't simply add the empty string test case to
absTests, which TestAbs uses. It would error when trying to do:

	info, err := os.Stat(path)

I didn't find a good way to modify TestAbs to handle this situation
without significantly complicating its code and compromising the test.
So, a separate test is created for testing Abs on empty string input.

Fixes #24441.
