New submission from Antony Lee:
PureWindowsPath("foo*") returns a path object, even though it is an invalid one
(e.g., open("foo*") on Windows throws an OSError for "invalid argument" rather
than a FileNotFoundError). Given the amount of checking that is done in (e.g.)
with_name and with_suffix, it seems reasonable to throw an exception in this
case too.
