It comes down to this. boost::urls::pct_encoded_view is a ForwardRange
of char. How do we append it as a segment to each of the following 4
things:

1. boost::filesystem::path on Windows
2. boost::filesystem::path not on Windows
3. std::filesystem::path on Windows
4. std::filesystem::path not on Windows

I do not know how to answer this question, other than with annoying
wide string conversions and extra memory allocations.

Thanks
