This helper allows us to convert paths to the NT path representation.
The NT Path representation is important for internal usage as it allows
us to bypass the `MAX_PATH` (261) limit for Win32 APIs. In order to do
this, we simply escape the string with the NT prefix (`\\?\`) which
requires that the path is normalised (uses `\` rather than `/`) and
generally should be an absolute path. Using the NT path allows us to use
the fully supported 32k character path length of the NT kernel.
