base: Ensure that FilePaths don't contain NULs

POSIX filepaths may not contain the NUL octet but previously we did not
reject such paths. This could be exploited by untrusted input to cause
discrepancies between various `FilePath` queries and the opened
filename. For instance, `readFile "hello.so\x00.txt"` would open the
file `"hello.so"` yet `takeFileExtension` would return `".txt"`.

The same argument applies to Windows FilePaths

Fixes #13660.
