Bug Fixes

• don't fail on sole directory inputs beyond MAX_PATH on Windows
  A sole directory input is changed into so its entries can be listed and
  reported relative to it, but set_current_dir enforces MAX_PATH on
  Windows (os error 206) even though the directory itself can still be
  traversed through verbatim paths.

  When the change fails, expand the directory into absolute input paths
  directly instead of aborting, which makes a single long directory input
  work in list, aggregate, stacks and interactive modes alike. Reported
  paths are absolute then, consistent with how multiple inputs are already
  displayed.

  The expanded root is returned to callers so the interactive mode still
  knows which directory the inputs belong to, and recorded in the new
  WalkOptions::base_dir, which every traversal uses as the working
  directory stand-in for ignore-pattern matching. That keeps --ignore-from
  patterns matching descendants relative to the expanded root - identical to
  what a successful chdir would have produced.

  Fixes #410

• don't panic on non-UTF-8 filenames when matching ignore patterns
  On Windows, NTFS filenames may contain unpaired surrogates that cannot be
  represented in UTF-8. IgnorePatterns::is_excluded converted each entry's
  relative path with the panicking gix::path::into_bstr, so a single such
  name anywhere in a scanned tree aborted the whole process when
  --ignore-from was used - in list, aggregate and stacks modes alike, as
  well as in clean's entry filtering.

  Match on the OS string's encoded bytes instead - OsStr::as_encoded_bytes
  yields a self-synchronizing UTF-8 superset (WTF-8 on Windows, the raw bytes
  on Unix) which represents lone surrogates losslessly. The glob matcher then
  compares bytes, so wildcard patterns that don't spell out the invalid code
  unit, like * or *.txt, still match such names instead of silently
  letting them through.

  Fixes #408
