Why is this necessary to document? Doesn't libsvn_fs auto-canonicalize
*every* incoming path already?

Ah... perhaps it's because this is the only API in which the caller
passes in a structure as input, one that might be reused. Hm.

I wonder if svn_fs_attach_lock() should canonicalize the path within
the incoming structure...? Wouldn't that be more elegant than making
the caller re-fetch the svn_lock_t?
