Normalize files_touched paths with filepath.ToSlash for cross-platform consistency.

[pjbgf]

Ensures all paths stored in FilesTouched use forward slashes regardless of OS, preventing mismatches in path comparisons (overlap detection, subtraction, deduplication) and JSON serialization on Windows.

---

Note

Low Risk
Low risk normalization change, but it can affect dedup/overlap behavior and checkpoint metadata comparisons on Windows vs POSIX if any code expected OS-native separators.

Overview
Ensures all file paths recorded in FilesTouched-style metadata are stored with forward slashes by applying filepath.ToSlash during path filtering, merge/dedup, transcript-extracted file normalization, and staged-file collection.

This makes path comparisons (dedupe/overlap/subtraction) and persisted checkpoint/state JSON consistent across platforms, particularly Windows.

Pull request overview

This PR normalizes files_touched path storage to use forward slashes (/) across platforms, reducing Windows-specific mismatches during path comparisons (overlap detection, subtraction/dedup) and in JSON output.

Changes:

• Normalize modified/staged file paths with filepath.ToSlash when extracting from transcripts and git output.
• Normalize FilesTouched merging logic to deduplicate consistently across path separator styles.
• Normalize FilterAndNormalizePaths outputs to forward slashes.
