Make try_exists return Ok(true) for Windows UDS

`fs::try_exists` currently fails on Windows if encountering a Unix Domain Socket (UDS). Fix this by checking for an error code that's returned when there's a failure to use a reparse point.

A reparse point is a way to invoke a filesystem filter on a file instead of the file being opened normally. This is used to implement symbolic links (by redirecting to a different path) but also to implement other types of special files such as Unix domain sockets. If the reparse point is not a link type then opening it with `CreateFileW` may fail with `ERROR_CANT_ACCESS_FILE` because the filesystem filter does not implement that operation. This differs from resolving links which may fail with errors such as `ERROR_FILE_NOT_FOUND` or `ERROR_CANT_RESOLVE_FILENAME`.

So `ERROR_CANT_ACCESS_FILE` means that the file exists but that we can't open it normally. Still, the file does exist so `try_exists` should report that as `Ok(true)`.
