Site Health: mixed slash symbols on paths in Directories and Sizes output

[xkon]

While checking out the discussion and testing #46645 I noticed that I'm getting the common mix of \ / in paths on the Directories and Sizes in Info page.

The uploaded diff addresses that by adding a wp_normalize_path() on the values returned.

Maybe we should so the same with WordPress Constants as ABSPATH, WP_CONTENT_DIR etc will be shown with mixed slashes as well?

Replying to xkon:

I've seen some issues similar to #29154 in plugins, where mixed slashes cause string replacements to fail, for example when removing ABSPATH from the full path. Mixed slashes are not pretty, but maybe for diagnostic purposes we should display those constants as is.

Normalizing the slashes only in "Directories and Sizes" box seems fine, but would make it inconsistent with "WordPress Constants"... I don't have a strong opinion here, would like to hear others' thoughts :)

As this is for debugging purposes, I think we should avoid modifications of constant data and similar, this may prove valuable to someone who has problems with paths in a plugin for example, to be able to show the raw path, over one we've prettified and possibly "hidden" the root case in.

I tend to agree with comment:4.
