func FixLongPath(path string) string

FixLongPath returns the extended-length (\\?\-prefixed) form of path when needed, in order to avoid the default 260 character file path limit imposed by Windows. If path is not easily converted to the extended-length form (for example, if path is a relative path or contains .. elements), or is short enough, fixLongPath returns path unmodified.
