If the input file was a network path then the raw path returned by GetFinalPathByHandle may return a UNC path. If so, and if the original path wasn't a UNC path, we want to remove the UNC prefix unless it was necessary to fully resolve the path.

Finished testing this around MAX_PATH. It has the expected behavior, as far as I can see. In particular, if you have a path that is very close to MAX_PATH, and the resultant UNC extended path exceeds MAX_PATH, the result will be a UNC path. I think that's fine, and it makes the code simpler to not deal with chopping off the extra UNC extended bytes.
