/// @assertion bool existsSync()
/// Synchronously checks whether the file system entity with this path exists.
///
/// Since FileSystemEntity is abstract, every FileSystemEntity object is
/// actually an instance of one of the subclasses File, Directory, and Link.
/// Calling existsSync on an instance of one of these subclasses checks whether
/// the object exists in the file system object exists and is of the correct
/// type (file, directory, or link). To check whether a path points to an object
/// on the file system, regardless of the object's type, use the typeSync static
/// method.
///
/// @description Checks that this method synchronously checks whether the file
/// system entity with this path exists
///
/// @note The test should run with the Administrator priveleges on Windows.
/// Dart API Spec reads:
/// In order to create a symbolic link on Windows, Dart must be run in
/// Administrator mode or the system must have Developer Mode enabled, otherwise
/// a FileSystemException will be raised with ERROR_PRIVILEGE_NOT_HELD set as
/// the errno when this call is made.
