Research direction
Start in resource-mapper.js and trace how the requested URI becomes a Windows filesystem path. Reproduce the chat-channel PUT on Windows with the colon-containing path, then determine whether handling should be OS-dependent while keeping valid URI paths compatible. Done means the request no longer fails because of Windows-forbidden path characters.

Description
@timbl @michielbdejong @RubenVerborgh @highlevellogic
Trying NSS on a windows pod https://bourgeoa.solid.hll.nu:7443 . Tested the chat with me from OS solid
The function returns a PUT error 500
FAILED to save new chat channel at: https://bourgeoa.solid.hll.nu:7443/IndividualChats/bourgeoa.solid.hll.nu:7443/index.ttl : Web error: 500 (Internal Server Error) on PUT of https://bourgeoa.solid.hll.nu:7443/IndividualChats/bourgeoa.solid.hll.nu:7443/index.ttl
This is due to the colon : in the folderPath
To ensure solid compatibility can we forbid the windows forbidden characters in pathName like \/:*%"<>| ?
This could be done in resource-mapper.js
Should it be OS dependent to allow any file OS file be URI capable.
index:name.ttl is valid POSIX file and URI, but invalid WINDOWS
