Absurd installation path requirements #389

Description

Install path requirements are

short ASCII-only path on a NTFS volume, no accents, no spaces, no symlinks, no subst or network drives, no FAT

This is absurd in modern days. Why don't you use Windows API to handle paths? It would handle all mentioned cases, including reparse points, ReFS, / to \ translation and more.
