path/filepath: change IsAbs("NUL") to return true

This CL changes IsAbs to return true for "NUL" and other Windows
reserved filenames (search
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/desktop/fileio/naming-a-file
for NUL for details). os.Open("NUL") and os.Stat("NUL") work
regardless of what current directory is, and it is mistake to join
"NUL" with current directory when building full path. Changing
IsAbs("NUL") to return true fixes that mistake.

Fixes #28035
