Much more sensible code. Sorry that changing the return required changing a bunch of other places.

Description of work
This changes the return type of file paths to use
std::filesystem::pathinstead of string. I also tried to make the parameter names more consistent between different methods for things like the hint.Note: On unix systems
std::filesystem::pathwill implicitly cast tostd::string. But on windows that doesn't happen so a lot of.string()was needed to be added, mainly for tests.Part of work towards #40542
To test:
Code review is all.
This does not require release notes because internal change only not visible to users.
