### What were you expecting to happen?
`src` glob on nonexistent directory to successfully no-op.
### What actually happened?
An `ENOENT` error was thrown.
### Please give us a sample of your gulpfile
```js
const { src, dest } = require('gulp');
function defaultTask(cb) {
return src('input/*.js')
.pipe(dest('output/'));
}
exports.default = defaultTask
```
### Terminal output / screenshots
```sh
Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, scandir '/project/input'
```
### Please provide the following information:
* OS & version [e.g. MacOS Catalina 10.15.4]: RHEL 8
* node version (run `node -v`): 24.0.1
* npm version (run `npm -v`): 11.3.0
* gulp version (run `gulp -v`): 5.0.1
### Additional information
On attempting to upgrade from gulp v5.0.0 to v5.0.1, an error is thrown that was not thrown before.
In v5.0.0, if the parent directory of the glob didn't exist, nothing was copied and the gulp build proceeded without error.
In v5.0.1, an ENOENT error is now thrown, breaking the build.
