WW-5646 Modernize path normalization in Include component (#1780)

* Modernize path normalization in Include component and handle edge cases

* Add tests for edge case dot-dot handling in Include path normalization

* Fix reversed path segment order in getContextRelativePath()

The for-each loop iterated the ArrayDeque head-to-tail (most
recently pushed first), which is the reverse of the old Stack's
insertion-order iteration. This caused rebuilt paths like
"car/view.jsp" to come out as "view.jsp/car".

Use descendingIterator() to restore the original oldest-first
ordering when rebuilding the flat path string.
