 * used to call POSIX APIs, and for roundtrip conversion, logging, and
 * debugging.
 *
 * Because \ref PathToString and \ref PathFromString functions don't specify an
 * encoding, they are meant to be used internally, not externally. They are not
 * appropriate to use in applications requiring UTF-8, where
 * fs::path::u8string() / fs::path::utf8string() and fs::u8path() methods should be used instead. Other
 * applications could require still different encodings. For example, JSON, XML,
 * or URI applications might prefer to use higher-level escapes (\uXXXX or
 * &XXXX; or %XX) instead of multibyte encoding. Rust, Python, Java applications
 * may require encoding paths with their respective UTF-8 derivatives WTF-8,
 * PEP-383, and CESU-8 (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UTF-8#Derivatives).
