Chef::ChefFS::PathUtils.descendant_path

Given two general OS-dependent file paths, determines the relative path of the
child with respect to the ancestor.  Both child and ancestor must exist and be
fully resolved - this is strictly a lexical comparison.  No trailing slashes
and other shenanigans are allowed.

TODO: Move this to util/path_helper.
