[CURATOR-499] ZKPaths strips trailing "/" incorrectly when creating sequential nodes

I think this was introduced in CURATOR-166, which changed ZKPaths to strip trailing slashes from child nodes.

This is fine in most cases: it made it so 

curatorFramework.create()

    .forPath("/path/to/node/", data);

would create a node at /path/to/node.

However, if you want to create a sequential node:

curatorFramework.create()

    .withMode(CreateMode.PERSISTENT_SEQUENTIAL)

    .forPath("/path/to/node/", data);

In clients after CURATOR-166 (2.7.1 and higher), this will create a node /path/to/node00000001. Before, and if you call the zookeeper cli with the same options, it would create a node /path/to/node/00000001.

This effectively makes it so you cannot use curator to create sequential nodes where the entire node name is the sequence number.
