 * Like join(), but doesn't collapse "**\/.." when `globstar` is true.
 *
 * @example Usage
 *
 * ```ts
 * import { joinGlobs } from "@std/path/windows/join-globs";
 * import { assertEquals } from "@std/assert";
 *
 * const joined = joinGlobs(["foo", "**", "bar"], { globstar: true });
 * assertEquals(joined, "foo\\**\\bar");
 * ```
 *
 * @param globs The globs to join.
 * @param options The options for glob pattern.
 * @returns The joined glob pattern.
