At this point, the only two possible errors are ERROR_DIRECTORY or ERROR_BAD_PATHNAME.

This code clarifies this and also saves a call to err_win_to_posix.

This change does not look correct. The documentation of FindFirstFileW()[*] does not give any guarantees that ERROR_DIRECTORY and ERROR_BAD_PATHNAME are the only possible error values. It is certainly not unthinkable that a hardware error is reported as ERROR_IO_DEVICE and should be translated to EIO.

Maybe the subject of this patch is a good change (I have no idea, and don't use Windows), but this just seems like unrelated general cleanup.

I think it's probably good to change these sorts cases from 0 to '\0', but let's do that as a seperate change...
