RFR: 8349812: (fs) Files.newByteChannel with empty path name and CREATE_NEW throws unexpected exception [v4]

> `UnixFileChannelFactory.open()` checks for the current directory by looking at the first byte of the name, which in case of an empty path is simply not there. This check throws an `ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException` and prevents the correct exception from being thrown.
> 
> The suggested solution is to use another method that translates a path name into a byte array called `getByteArrayForSysCalls()` that is specifically designed to handle the case of empty path names.
> 
> Tested by running `java/nio` tests on Linux.
