exists and notExists

[Elliotte Harold]

Why do are there both exists() and notExists() methods in 
java.nio.file.Path? Is there some subtle issue such that notExists() is 
not equivalent to !exists()?

Otherwise, this feels like unnecessary duplication to me. I'd rather 
have just the single exists() method.
