Refactor all ctor callsites of PathFragment to instead call a static 'create' method.
This paves the way for changing PathFragment to e.g. an abstract class with multiple subclasses. This way we can split out the windows-specific stuff into one of these concrete classes, making the code more readable and also saving memory (since the shallow heap size of the NonWindowsPathFragment subclass will hopefully be smaller than that of the current PathFragment).
This also lets us pursue gc churn optimizations. We can now do interning in PathFragment#create and can also get rid of unnecessary intermediate PathFragment allocations.
