[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #59706] Avoid "canonicalize_file_name" on Windows

[Rik]

Follow-up Comment #19, bug #59706 (project octave):

It will be interesting to see how much this helps.  Given that
canonicalize_file_name was probably calling the library function stat()
internally to check on the existence of the file name, the octave::stat
function inadvertently was calling the stat() library function twice.  I would
hope we get at least a 2X speedup, and maybe more if we don't call the regexp
parser as frequently either.
