This function currently corresponds to the `chdir` function on Unix and the `SetCurrentDirectoryW` function on Windows.

Returns an `Err` if the operation fails.

## §Examples

    use std::env;
    use std::path::Path;

    let root = Path::new("/");
    assert!(env::set_current_dir(&root).is_ok());
    println!("Successfully changed working directory to {}!", root.display());
