Added methods normalizedPath and isNormalized to SimpleAbstractPath.

SimpleAbstractPath.normalize now no longer creates a new instance if the path is already normalized.

Added methods addIfNotExists, find and status to FileSystemMap.

2.2

Added classes FileAttributeConstants, FileAttributeSupport, FileAttributeViewMetadata and FileAttributeViewCollection that can help in implementing methods like FileSystemProvider.readAttributes or FileSystemProvider.setAttribute.

Added method Messages.fileSystemProvider().unsupportedCreateFileAttributeValue that returns an exception that can be thrown if a FileAttribute is provided to methods like FileSystemProvider.createDirectory with an unsupported value.

Added several constants to class SimpleAbstractPath that can be used in the implementation of file systems.

2.1

Added class FileSystemMap which provides a thread-safe way of storing file systems without unnecessary locking during the creation of file systems.

Class Messages now works properly on Java 11 and up. Older versions would trigger an UnsupportedOperationException due to the use of a custom ResourceBundle.Control.

If the property type is a string, methods getByteValue, getShortValue, getIntValue, getLongValue, getFloatValue and getDoubleValue of class FileSystemProviderSupport now try to parse the property value and not the property name.
