mingw: do not treat
COM0
as a reserved file name
In 4dc42c6 (mingw: refuse paths containing reserved names, 2019-12-21), we started disallowing file names that are reserved, e.g. `NUL`, `CONOUT$`, etc. This included `COM<n>` where `<n>` is a digit. Unfortunately, this includes `COM0` but only `COM1`, ..., `COM9` are reserved, according to the official documentation, `COM0` is mentioned in the "NT Namespaces" section but it is explicitly _omitted_ from the list of reserved names: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/fileio/naming-a-file#naming-conventions Tests corroborate this: it is totally possible to write a file called `com0.c` on Windows 10, but not `com1.c`. So let's tighten the code to disallow only the reserved `COM<n>` file names, but to allow `COM0` again. This fixes git-for-windows#2470. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <[email protected]>
