`path.Join` joins path elements into a single path, adding a separating slash if necessary.
All empty strings are ignored.

**Note:** All path elements on Windows are converted to slash ('/') separators.

```
{{ path.Join "partial" "news.html" }} → "partial/news.html"
{{ path.Join "partial/" "news.html" }} → "partial/news.html"
{{ path.Join "foo/baz" "bar" }} → "foo/baz/bar"
```
