Path prefixes (Windows only).

Windows uses a variety of path styles, including references to drive volumes (like `C:`), network shared folders (like `\\server\share`) and others. In addition, some path prefixes are "verbatim", in which case `/` is not treated as a separator and essentially no normalization is performed.

## Variants

`Verbatim` | Prefix `\\?\`, together with the given component immediately following it. |
`VerbatimUNC` | Prefix `\\?\UNC\`, with the "server" and "share" components following it. |
`VerbatimDisk` | Prefix like `\\?\C:\`, for the given drive letter |
`DeviceNS` | Prefix `\\.\`, together with the given component immediately following it. |
`UNC` | Prefix `\\server\share`, with the given "server" and "share" components. |
`Disk` | Prefix `C:` for the given disk drive. |

## Methods

### `impl<'a> Prefix<'a>`

#### `fn is_verbatim(&self) -> bool`

Determines if the prefix is verbatim, i.e. begins with `\\?\`.

## Search Tricks

Prefix searches with a type followed by a colon (e.g. `fn:`) to restrict the search to a given type.

Accepted types are: `fn`, `mod`, `struct`, `enum`, `trait`, `type`, `macro`, and `const`.

Search functions by type signature (e.g. `vec -> usize` or `* -> vec`)
