What does this pull request do?
Fix #318.
Where should the reviewer start?
How should this be manually tested?
The crash only happens when we enable recursive watch on windows here: https://github.com/fsnotify/fsnotify/blob/master/windows.go#L350 by changing the argument flag from false to true.
Then if we create a really long filepath (see code snippet in #318), and begin watching on the first parent directory of that path and let the recursive watch propagates, fsnotify will crash.
