$ctx->url_from_path is calling svn_client_url_from_path():
http://subversion.apache.org/docs/api/1.8/group__clnt__sessions.html#ga32b1f7f851452ec8ecc8c2d899de2b0e

svn_client is dropped since $ctx is the client library "object".

The purpose of that function is to provide a entry URL for a node in the
repository. You can abuse it to do canonicalizations (because it was poorly
designed) but that's not the purpose of the API. So you should use
SVN::Core::uri_canonicalize().
