Since this branch, Test-Path2 writes $false for a path that Windows
PowerShell rejects, such as one with a |, but it didn't say why. It now
writes the reason as a debug message. Only the lookup of the item is in
the try block, so that an error elsewhere in the cmdlet can't turn into
$false.
Found by the security review of fcb370e..00c3646 (finding 4).

In Windows PowerShell, .NET rejects a path with a character that Windows
doesn't allow in names, such as | or <, and Test-Path2 stopped with the
terminating error "Illegal characters in path". Such an item can't
exist, so the cmdlet now writes false, as in PowerShell 7 and like
Test-Path. Add tests for every -PathType, long paths, relative paths,
and the pipeline, and for Get-DiskSpace, which had no tests.

Defect 22:
- [OutputType]: Test-Path2 writes System.Boolean, not file objects;
Get-FileHash2 writes the file object with Hash and Algorithm, not access
rules; Add-NTFSAudit and Remove-NTFSAudit write audit entries since
defect 6; Copy-Item2, Move-Item2, Remove-Item2, and the five inheritance
cmdlets with -PassThru declared no type.
- Enable-Privileges and Disable-Privileges with -PassThru wrote the
privileges as one collection; they now enumerate it.
- New-NTFSSymbolicLink -PassThru returned a FileInfo for a link to a
folder; it now returns a DirectoryInfo.
The OUTPUTS sections of the pages name the same types.
Tests/OutputTypes.Tests.ps1 (new): 15 tests; Disable-Privileges and the
symbolic link need privileges and run in CI.

* chore: initialize the memory bank
Add the canonical .memory-bank base with evidence-based project context:
purpose and scope, workflows, stack and validation commands, architecture
map, decisions, and the open work found while documenting the cmdlets.

* docs: align documentation with the cmdlet source
- Fill all 36 platyPS cmdlet pages from the C# source: synopsis,
description, parameters, defaults, examples, inputs, outputs, and
notes, including documented limitations of the current code
- Check every example against live parameter metadata and run them in a
sandbox; fix examples that did not work (CSV restore, account filter,
recursive inheritance, -AccessRights typos)
- Rewrite the home, concepts, examples, README, and contributor pages;
add a grouped cmdlet overview, module settings, privileges, long paths,
and the platyPS workflow
- Document Remove-Item2 -PassThru as renamed after 4.2.6 (#64)
- Fix mkdocs.yml navigation, edit_uri, and copyright markup; add
build.os and a pinned MkDocs version for Read the Docs
- Point online help links to the pages on GitHub; add CHANGELOG.md

* ci: build the module and check the docs against the build
The documentation check ran Update-MarkdownHelp against the NTFSSecurity
release from the PowerShell Gallery (4.2.6), so it failed for every
unreleased parameter change. PR #91 failed because 4.2.6 still has
Remove-Item2 -PassThur while the source and the docs have -PassThru.
- Build NTFSSecurity.csproj in Release on the Visual Studio 2022 image,
using the .NET Framework 4.5.2 reference assemblies package instead of
an installed targeting pack
- Check Docs/Cmdlets against the module built from source
- Pin platyPS 0.14.2 and MarkdownLinkCheck 0.2.0, and enable TLS 1.2 so
the NuGet provider bootstrap works
