Have you considered merging with System.IO.Abstractions? #93

Have you considered merging this work into System.IO.Abstractions? https://github.com/TestableIO/System.IO.Abstractions

I say this because it would reach a much broader audience if LongPath support were built into that library.

Interesting suggestion. LongPath isn't an abstraction in the same sense as System.IO.Abstractions. System.IO.Abstractions looks like it has all the types and members that LongPath has already covered. I could see there being value in taking reference to System.IO.Abstractions in LongPath and implementing them to be an alternative implementation
