SV: Abstract FilePath Proposal

[Kostiantyn Rybnikov]

Because new api already exists in libraries, but FilePath from base is
still being used, which makes things worse (now your programs have all
those conversions all over).

I like the idea with gradual deprecation warning, but it's not clear if
it's feasible to implement.
