Description

When a new asset named ".jpg" is being modified in JCR, ResourceUtil.normalize() method returns an incorrect normalized path which leads to the creation of a folder named '.jp' under the same parent node. A small test shows this anomaly.

public class RUNormalizeTest {

	public static String toPropertyPath(String paramName, String path) {
        if (!paramName.startsWith("/")) {
            paramName = ResourceUtil.normalize(path + '/' + paramName);
        }

        return paramName;
    }
	
	public static void main(String[] args) {
		String pName = "./jpg_folder/.jpg/jcr:content/metadata/dc:title";
		String path = "/content/dam";
		System.out.println(toPropertyPath(pName,path));
	}
}

Expected output: /content/dam/jpg_folder/.jpg/jcr:content/metadata/dc:title
Output: /content/dam/jpg_folder/.jp/jcr:content/metadata/dc:title

In the above code, the properties of an asset named '.jpg' are being modified. However, the normalize method returns an incorrect path for the input path.
