Description: Reopen #7404 PR Summary Unescape non-literal path when -Name is not set. Fix failure with symlink/junction target which contains special character. PR Context This works around for New-Item treating -Path as literal path while it can also be globbable. For example, assuming there is "[file]1" in current directory, and tab completion suggests './`[file`]1' for the -Path argument, but New-Item -Path './`[file`]2' will create a file named "`[file`]2" instead of "[file]2". Also fixes an issue that New-Item does not handle -Target properly when it contains escaped wildcard character. For example, there is a directory "[dir]1" in current directory, and tab completion suggests './`[dir`]1' for the -Target argument, but New-Item -Type Junction -Path './`[dir`]2' -Target './`[dir`]1' will complain that it cannot find the item.
