SF #1685563, MSVCCompiler creates redundant and long PATH strings

If MSVCCompiler.initialize() was called multiple times, the path
would get duplicated.  On Windows, this is a problem because the
path is limited to 4k.  There's no benefit in adding a path multiple
times, so prevent that from occuring.  We also normalize the path
before checking for duplicates so things like /a and /a/ won't both
be stored.
