Creates a path from a name that could be a file or a folder name. If a file with the given name exists in the file system, it is decided that this is a file name, and a FileName is returned. If a folder with the given name exists in the file system, then it is decided that this is a folder, and a DirectoryName is returned. If neither of the two cases above applies, null is returned.
