/// Attempts to open a bare path `p`.

/// WASI has no fundamental capability to do this. All syscalls and operations
/// are relative to already-open file descriptors. The C library, however,
/// manages a map of pre-opened file descriptors to their path, and then the C
/// library provides an API to look at this. In other words, when you want to
/// open a path `p`, you have to find a previously opened file descriptor in a
/// global table and then see if `p` is relative to that file descriptor.
///
/// This function, if successful, will return two items:
///
/// * The first is a `ManuallyDrop<WasiFd>`. This represents a pre-opened file
///   descriptor which we don't have ownership of, but we can use. You shouldn't
///   actually drop the `fd`.
///
/// * The second is a path that should be a part of `p` and represents a
///   relative traversal from the file descriptor specified to the desired
///   location `p`.
///
/// If successful you can use the returned file descriptor to perform
/// file-descriptor-relative operations on the path returned as well. The
/// `rights` argument indicates what operations are desired on the returned file
/// descriptor, and if successful the returned file descriptor should have the
/// appropriate rights for performing `rights` actions.
///
/// Note that this can fail if `p` doesn't look like it can be opened relative
/// to any pre-opened file descriptor.
