    Cygwin: cygwin_conv_path: don't write to `to` before size is validated.
    
    In the CCP_POSIX_TO_WIN_W path, when `from` is a device,
    cygwin_conv_path would attempt to write to the `to` buffer before the
    validation of the `size`.  This resulted in an EFAULT error in the
    common use-case of passing `to` as NULL and `size` as 0 to get the
    required size of `to` for the conversion (as used in
    cygwin_create_path).  Instead, set a boolean and write to `to`
    after validation.
