function Resolve-PathCase
{
    <#
    .SYNOPSIS
    Returns the real, canonical case of a path.
     
    .DESCRIPTION
    The .NET and Windows path/file system APIs respect and preserve the case of paths passed to them. This function will return the actual case of a path on the file system, regardless of the case of the string passed in.
     
    If the path doesn't an exist, an error is written and nothing is returned.
 
    .EXAMPLE
    Resolve-PathCase -Path "C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32"
     
    Returns `C:\Windows\system32`.
     
    .EXAMPLE
    Resolve-PathCase -Path 'c:\projects\carbon'
     
    Returns `C:\Projects\Carbon`.
