@class wxPathList
The path list is a convenient way of storing a number of directories, and
when presented with a filename without a directory, searching for an
existing file in those directories.
Be sure to look also at wxStandardPaths if you only want to search files in
some standard paths.

The @a path is always considered to be a directory but no existence checks will be
done on it (because if it doesn't exist, it could be created later and thus result a
valid path when FindValidPath() is called).
@note if the given path is relative, it won't be made absolute before adding it

prefix is absolute, only its name will be searched); i.e. it must not end with
a directory separator (see wxFileName::GetPathSeparator) otherwise an assertion
will fail.
The returned path may be relative to the current working directory.
Note in fact that wxPathList can be used to store both relative and absolute
paths so that if you added relative paths, then the current working directory
(see wxGetCwd() and wxSetWorkingDirectory()) may affect the value returned
by this function!
