[repo] Running yarn lint-staged on Windows with changes containing links causes pull request build failures

[NeillM]

What is the issue that you're experiencing?

On Windows if you run yarn lint-staged on a commit that contains a link like [my link](./filter.md) it will be converted to a path like [my link](\docs\apis\core\reportbuilder\filtering.md)

I'm guessing it should probably be just left alone, since changing it to [my link](/docs/apis/core/reportbuilder/filtering.md) causes it's own issues.

Are you able to provide a patch for this?

Yes, in pull request #1198

It looks as though it is markdownlint-cli2 --fix that is doing this, probably via the renamedLinks Identify and fix renamed links rule which appears to be one we have added and not a part of the core markdownlint-cli2 ruleset.

It looks as though we are using the node.js path library in a way that makes the links work dependant on the OS, we can force it to always use more Linux like links by changing from just path to path.posix
