[Bug]: New-PSWorkItem failure with -PassThru

[jbelina]

Describe the problem

When creating a new task using the -PassThru feature, the path is not passed into _newWorkItem resulting in the following error calling Convert-Path.

PS> New-PSWorkItem -Category work -Name "still testing" -Passthru -Debug -Verbose | Format-List

Error Message: DEBUG: [23:02:02.9422279 _newWorkItem] Creating item 'still testing' [0f3664f3-be5a-4609-94fa-268d96928d1a] Convert-Path: C:...\PowerShell\Modules\PSWorkItem\0.8.0\functions\private\helpers.ps1:18 Line | 18 | $item.path = Convert-Path $path | ~ | Cannot bind argument to parameter 'Path' because it is an empty string.

Expectation

The new task should be passed through to the pipeline without error.

Additional Information

This issue is new to v0.8.0 due to the change in _newWorkItem and affects both New-PSWorkItem and Complete-PSWorkItem

(I have a fix ready and tested.)
