2024-06-28	Give our fsyspath an operator std::string() conversion method.	Nat Goodspeed
	This is redundant (but harmless) on a Posix system, but it fills a missing puzzle piece on Windows. The point of fsyspath is to be able to interchange freely between fsyspath and std::string. Existing fsyspath could be constructed and assigned from std::string, and we could explicitly call its string() method to get a std::string, but an implicit fsyspath-to-string conversion that worked on Posix would trip us up on Windows. Fix that.
2024-04-03	Introduce fsyspath subclass of std::filesystem::path.	Nat Goodspeed
	Our std::strings are UTF-8 encoded, so conversion from std::string to std::filesystem::path must use UTF-8 decoding. The native Windows std::filesystem::path constructor and assignment operator accepting std::string use "native narrow encoding," which mangles path strings containing UTF-8 encoded non-ASCII characters. fsyspath's std::string constructor and assignment operator explicitly engage std::filesystem::u8path() to handle encoding. u8path() is deprecated in C++20, but once we adapt fsyspath's conversion to C++20 conventions, consuming code need not be modified.
