Use untitled document for nonexisting file path in cmd

In the actual Vim, commands like ":e" do not create a file first if the path in the cmd doesn't exist. Rather, it creates an empty buffer and only create the file on write.
This commits changes the behavior to be more consistent with actual Vim by using untitled document instead creating the file if the file on the cmd is not found.
