Description

When I test fn:path on a parentless element node in Saxon-JS 2 and XSLT 3 I get a result like /Q{}foo[1] while Saxon Java gives Q{http://www.w3.org/2005/xpath-functions}root(). I think Saxon-JS 2's result is a bug.

It looks like all the tests for path() applied to trees rooted at an element node have a dependency on XQuery, so they are not applicable to Saxon-JS. I don't think it's possible to construct a parentless element node with XPath alone, so I'll add some tests to the XSLT test suite.

I've added a number of tests to the XSLT3 test suite (test set accessor) to evaluate path() on non-document trees.

The Saxon-JS implementation of path() basically was making no attempt to handle this case. I've effectively rewritten it, and it now passes all the tests.
