Description

- Drive enumeration. The more general problem is when the glob pattern contains properties which evaluate to empty. (`$(src)/**/*.cs` evaluates to `/**/*.cs`).
- Original wildcard pattern is retuned ([as it sometimes happens](https://github.com/Microsoft/msbuild/blob/master/documentation/WhenGlobbingReturnsOriginalFilespec.md)). Maybe also include the reason.
