Refine how path elements are displayed
Path elements were and are horizontal scroll forms composed of path item
elements. Previously they were separated like this (each "(x)" is a
different path item element):

  (My ~/Music Library >) (C418 >) (72 Minutes Of Fame >) (03 Alive)

Now they're separated like this:

  (In: My ~/Music Libary) (> C418) (> 72 Minutes Of Fame)

There are two changes here:

* The last item, i.e. the selected item itself, is no longer a part of
  the path display. In practice this wasn't actually a very useful
  button, and now the path element is more useful in how it was designed
  to be used: as a way to jump to the group which a selected track is
  in. (This is emphasized by the new "In:" label at the start of the
  first path element.)

* The "arrow label" part of the element is now placed on the left of the
  element instead of the right. Before, all but the last item had a ">"
  in their arrow label; now, all but the first do. (The first item has
  the text "In:" instead.) This is so that it's clear when the path
  element has been scrolled to the right and the first/leftmost items
  are cut off; if any are cut off, the first visible element will start
  with ">" instead of "In:".
