Such a behavior might be ok for a command line client.
But as you can see from the original report, other clients either need
proper error messages or a canonicalize API that does what its name says
it does.

As it is now, the svn_uri_is_canonical() and the
svn_dirent_canonicalize()/svn_uri_canonicalize() don't really match.
