[PATCH v2] Cygwin: path: Add fallback for DFS mounted drive.

- If UNC path for DFS is mounted to a drive with drive letter, the
  error "Too many levels of symbolic links" occurs when accessing
  to that drive. This is because GetDosDeviceW() returns unexpected
  string such as "\Device\Mup\DfsClient\;Z:000000000003fb89\dfsserver
  \dfs\linkname" for the mounted UNC path "\??\UNC\fileserver\share".
  This patch adds a workaround for this issue.
