                AbsolutePathList


Class representing a list of absolute paths.

This is an unordered list.

We override the append, insert and extend methods to ensure that any item added to the list is an absolute path.

Each item added to the list is encoded using encodePath. If we don't do this, we have problems trying certain operations between strings and unicode objects, particularly for "odd" filenames that can't be encoded in standard ASCII.
