<pre>As the native path format on Windows is arguably UTF-16 (and MSVC's standard
lib does this as well, as does Boost.Filesystem, not sure about libstdc++),
std::filesystem::path should obey that choice.
Most efficient solution would be to let path use wchar_t throughout, but an
acceptable solution would be to convert to the correct type on a call to
native().
This ensures compatibility between code written with MSVC compiled against
libc++.</pre>
