  1. Since PathFileExists calls GetFileAttributes it supports extended-length paths:
Child-SP          RetAddr           Call Site
00000000`001bf718 000007fe`fefec9b1 kernel32!GetFileAttributesW
00000000`001bf720 00000001`3f9b1037 SHLWAPI!PathFileExistsW+0x2d

Extended-length paths usage info added to pszPath parameter description.
2. ERROR_FILE_NOT_FOUND case added to PathFileExistsA.
3. ERROR_PATH_NOT_FOUND case added.
