On Windows, attempting to open a serial port using a Device Interface Path instead of a COM port name results in a failure.

For example, trying to open the following device path fails:

\\?\USB#VID_0483&PID_5740#158133603236#{86e0d1e0-8089-11d0-9ce4-08003e301f73}

This path corresponds to a USB virtual COM port

Expected behavior: The serial port should open successfully when using a valid Device Interface Path.
