cutils: Fix get_relocated_path on Windows


get_relocated_path() did not have error handling for PathCchSkipRoot()
because a path given to get_relocated_path() was expected to be a valid
path containing a drive letter or UNC server/share path elements on
Windows, but sometimes it turned out otherwise.

The paths passed to get_relocated_path() are defined by macros generated
by Meson. Meson in turn uses a prefix given by the configure script to
generate them. For Windows, the script passes /qemu as a prefix to
Meson by default.

As documented in docs/about/build-platforms.rst, typically MSYS2 is used
for the build system, but it is also possible to use Linux as well. When
MSYS2 is used, its Bash variant recognizes /qemu as a MSYS2 path, and
converts it to a Windows path, adding the MSYS2 prefix including a drive
letter or UNC server/share path elements. Such a conversion does not
happen on a shell on Linux however, and /qemu will be passed as is in
the case.

Implement a proper error handling of PathCchSkipRoot() in
get_relocated_path() so that it can handle a path without a drive letter
or UNC server/share path elements.
