PathJoin: improve error message when given one argument

PathJoin fails with an unclear message if only one argument is passed
to it. Calling PathJoin("/foo") causes this exception:

Error: path joining resulted in different prefix (/foo != /foo)

However, /foo and /foo obviously share prefixes: what this function
really checks is that the resulting path should be inside the first
argument and, in that sense, /foo is not a "real" prefix of /foo.

Given that PathJoin already asserts that it received any arguments
at all, this commit discards the assertion for an error to be raised
if 0 or 1 arguments are received. The semantics don't change, but
the error message is clearer.
