[PATCH v3] c++: Allow module name to be a single letter on Windows

v1 -> v2:
Paths without "C:" part can still be absolute if they start with / or
\ on Windows.

v2 -> v3:
Use alternative approach by having platform specific code in module.cc.

Truth table for the new expression:
c:\foo     -> true
c:/foo     -> true
/foo       -> true
\foo       -> true
c:foo      -> false
foo        -> false
./foo      -> true
.\foo      -> true


Ok for trunk?

On Windows, the ':' character is special and when the module name is
a single character, like 'A', then the flatname would be (for
example) 'A:Foo'. On Windows, 'A:Foo' is treated as an absolute
path by the module loader and is likely not found.

Without this patch, the test case pr98944_c.C fails with:

In module imported at /src/gcc/testsuite/g++.dg/modules/pr98944_b.C:7:1,
of module A:Foo, imported at /src/gcc/testsuite/g++.dg/modules/pr98944_c.C:7:
A:Internals: error: header module expected, module 'A:Internals' found
A:Internals: error: failed to read compiled module: Bad file data
A:Internals: note: compiled module file is 'gcm.cache/A-Internals.gcm'
In module imported at /src/gcc/testsuite/g++.dg/modules/pr98944_c.C:7:8:
A:Foo: error: failed to read compiled module: Bad import dependency
A:Foo: note: compiled module file is 'gcm.cache/A-Foo.gcm'
A:Foo: fatal error: returning to the gate for a mechanical issue
compilation terminated.

gcc/cp/ChangeLog:

	* module.cc: On Windows, 'A:Foo' is supposed to be a module
	and not a path.

Tested on Windows with arm-none-eabi for Cortex-M3 in gcc-11 tree.
