Non-Letter Drive Windows Paths Are Incorrectly Reported As Non-Absolute #271

Description

@Frizlab

This is an edge-case for sure.

Here’s the source code:

print(FilePath(#"C:\foo"#).isAbsolute)
print(FilePath(#"+:\foo"#).isAbsolute)
print(FilePath(#"€:\foo"#).isAbsolute)

The three paths are valid absolute paths on Windows, however the output of this program will be true, false, false.
