[issue44452] Allow paths to be joined without worrying about a leading slash

So how this should work? 
I'm testing this simple example on Windows:

a = Path("/a/b")
b = Path("c/d")

and b / a gives me WindowsPath('/a/b'). So I'm like "ok, a seems like absolute, I will test for that" but on Windows a.is_absolute() is False.
???

Regards
