This work item tracks the removal of the feature flag pdb-path-determinism. This feature flag was a place holder for having a long term solution around the embedded pdb path be deterministic across different soucre enlistments. This can now be achieved with the /pathmap option and hence the feature flag should be removed.

Deferring removal until a major release to avoid breaking any dependencies in existing build systems.

The PDB path which is written into the PE file should respect the
`/pathmap` option passed to the compiler.  This is necessary to ensure
that PEs can be deterministic when built from different source paths.

The feature flag `pdb-path-determinism` is being kept for the time
being.  Even though it's a feature flag it still seems inappropriate to
break customers in a point release.  Deferring the removal until the
next major release to give customers time to react.  This issue tracks
removing the flag:

We're currently validating file names (for back-compat reasons), and we should no longer need to.
