I am a path on the filesystem that only permits 'downwards'
access.
Instantiate me with a pathname (for example,
FilePath('/home/myuser/public_html')) and I will attempt to only provide
access to files which reside inside that path. I may be a path to a
file, a directory, or a file which does not exist.
The correct way to use me is to instantiate me, and then do ALL
filesystem access through me. In other words, do not import the 'os'
module; if you need to open a file, call my 'open' method. If you need
to list a directory, call my 'path' method.
Even if you pass me a relative path, I will convert that to an
absolute path internally.
