Research direction
Start by reading the linked normalized-path documentation and the article on Unicode normalization in APFS; the issue does not identify any TruePath files, tests, or entry points. First determine which macOS filesystems and comparison behavior are in scope. Done means path-name comparison handles the agreed normalization cases, with tests covering them.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
For macOS (or only APFS? Or only HFS(+)?), we should implement nomralization-aware path string comparison.
