[edit] Exceptions
Any overload not marked noexcept may throw std::bad_alloc if memory allocation fails.
Throws std::filesystem::filesystem_error on underlying OS API errors, constructed with from as the first path argument, to as the second path argument, and the OS error code as the error code argument.
Sets a std::error_code& parameter to the OS API error code if an OS API call fails, and executes ec.clear() if no errors occur.
