windows: support UNC paths

Fixes #8205 and #12729.

The old method of prepending `\??\` at the start of the DOS path
produced invalid strings for UNC paths (such as those found in WSL).
Instead, we rely on the conversion routine in ntdll, which should handle
all current and future edge cases properly.
