RFR: 8256461: AbstractFileSystemProvider.getSunPathForSocketCall for empty Path returns '.' [v3]

[Michael McMahon]

> Could I get the following change reviewed please? 
> 
> The problem results from AbstractFileSystemProvider.getSunPathForSocketCall  returning a path of '.' when given an empty path argument. The socket API needs an empty path byte[] in this situation. It causes a BindException which is actually correct, but the error message is confusing because "." always exists and the error message is saying 'path already exists' when the actual error is that server socket channels cannot be bound to the empty path.
