Why would you care to cover all of that?
Your very numbers show that 128 bytes covers 97+% of all cases (and
160 bytes is at 99.8%)
The other cases need to be *correct*, of course, but not necessarily
optimized for.
If we can do 97% of all filenames with a simple on-stack allocation,
that would be a huge win.
(In fact, 64 bytes covers 90% of the cases according to your numbers).
