      macOS 10.13 switched the default file system from HFS+ to APFS. File names on HFS+ are normalized to an Apple variant of Unicode Normalization Format D. APFS does not do this normalization.

      We need to re-examine the macOS implementation of sun.nio.fs.FileSystem to see if the overloads of normalizeNativePath and normalizeJavaPath can be removed.
