[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH 0/2] Support long file names on Windows

[ffmpegagent <ffmpegagent@gmail.com>]

This patchset adds support for long file and directory paths on Windows. The
implementation follows the same logic that .NET is using internally, with
the only exception that it doesn't expand short path components in 8.3
format. .NET does this as the same function is also used for other purposes,
but in our case, that's not required. Short (8.3) paths are working as well
with the extended path prefix, even when longer than 260.

Successfully tested:

 * Regular paths wth drive letter
 * Regular UNC paths
 * Long paths wth drive letter
 * Long paths wth drive letter and forward slashes
 * Long UNC paths
 * Prefixed paths wth drive letter
 * Prefixed UNC paths

I have kept the individual functions separate on purpose, to make it easy to
compare with the .NET impl. (compilers should inlinie those anyway)
