Subject: [PATCH] Bug 706761: Don't "reduce" %pipe% file names for permission
 validation

For regular file names, we try to simplfy relative paths before we use them.

Because the %pipe% device can, effectively, accept command line calls, we
shouldn't be simplifying that string, because the command line syntax can end
up confusing the path simplifying code. That can result in permitting a pipe
command which does not match what was originally permitted.

Special case "%pipe" in the validation code so we always deal with the entire
string.
