function Test-UncPath
{
    <#
    .SYNOPSIS
    Tests if a path is a UNC path.
 
    .DESCRIPTION
    Converts the path to a URI and returns the value of its `IsUnc` property.
 
    This function does not test if path exists. Use `Test-Path` for that.

    .EXAMPLE
    Test-UncPath -Path '\\computer\share'
 
    Returns `true` since `\\computer\share` is a UNC path. Note that `Test-UncPath` does not have to exist.
 
    .EXAMPLE
    Test-UncPath -Path 'C:\Windows'
 
    Returns `false` since `C:\Windows` is not a UNC path.
