Maybe investigate whether storing path as Vec<Atom> / Box<[Atom]> is better than a single Atom over the whole path #11

Using atom for each level of path should enable better sharing and thus fewer atoms globally. Also downstream would no longer need to split the path themselves.

Played with the code a bit, and it seems using vector of parts for path wouldn't save memory, at least.
