The "bytes in some arbitrary encoding where at least the slash character (and maybe a couple others) is ascii compatible" notion is completely bogus. There's only one special byte, the slash (code 47). There's no OS-level need that it or anything else be ASCII compatible.
Of course there is. Try to split an UTF-16-encoded file path on the byte 47 and you'll get a lot of garbage. So, yes, POSIX implicitly mandates an ASCII-compatible encoding for file paths.
