WPF Geometry.Combine throws COMException MILERR_SCANNER_FAILED when given geometry generated by GetWidenedPathGeometry()

_This issue has been moved from [a ticket on Developer Community](https://developercommunity.visualstudio.com/t/WPF-GeometryCombine-throws-COMException/10046248)._

The test application provided by the attached Visual Studio project illustrates the issue.

[MILERR_SCANNER_FAILED_MinimalReproduction.zip](https://aka.ms/dc/file?name=B2c1ea398deea491fafc4cb8885f7b992637884762012909923_MILERR_SCANNER_FAILED_MinimalReproduction.zip&tid=2c1ea398deea491fafc4cb8885f7b992637884762012909923)

The test application creates a valid Geometry object and a widened version of that Geometry using Geometry.GetWidenedPathGeometry() with a certain Pen thickness. Both geometries are then passed to Geometry.Combine(widenedGeometry, Geometry, GeometryCombinedMode.Exclude, Transform.Identity). The Geometry.Combine call throws the following exception:

Geometry.Combine failed: System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x88980004): MILERR_SCANNER_FAILED (Exception from HRESULT: 0x88980004)
at System.Windows.Media.PathGeometry.InternalCombine(Geometry geometry1, Geometry geometry2, GeometryCombineMode mode, Transform transform, Double tolerance, ToleranceType type)
