Research direction

Reproduce the failure on Windows 10 with blosc2.open and the reported Chinese-character path. Start at schunk.py:1593 and blosc2_ext.pyx:2015, then trace the open entry point to determine where the path is rejected; done means that this path opens successfully without the reported RuntimeError.
