Implement dirname as a bash function. Make sure it behaves sensibly when given such arguments as /.

The dirname utility treats its argument as a pathname and writes to standard
output the path prefix—that is, everything up to but not including the last
component:
$ dirname a/b/c/d
a/b/c
If you give dirname a simple filename (no / characters) as an argument,
dirname writes a . to standard output:
$ dirname simple
.
