Split files 001, 0002, 000x regression

VLC 1.1 could play splitted files.

In 2.0.x, it cannot.

Should we do it in a stream filter or back in the core, like in the past?

Ok, so the interesting thing is that it works in 2.0.5 and 2.1.0 on linux and Mac.

So, this is a Win32 only issue.

So, the issue appears in InputGetExtraFilesPattern() in src/input/input.c, where the vlc_stat( psz_file, &st ) fails.

In fact, it fails because it passes /C:/Users/jb/mkv_split.001 to vlc_stat() and therefore to _wstati64 and not C:\Users\jb\mkv_split.001

Which is why it fails only on Win32

The issue, is, of course, the first '/'
