        public static Path get​(URI uri)
        Converts the given URI to a Path object.
        Implementation Requirements:
        This method simply invokes Path.of(URI) with the given parameter.
        Parameters:
        uri - the URI to convert
        Returns:
        the resulting Path
        Throws:
        IllegalArgumentException - if preconditions on the uri parameter do not hold. The format of the URI is provider specific.
        FileSystemNotFoundException - The file system, identified by the URI, does not exist and cannot be created automatically, or the provider identified by the URI's scheme component is not installed
        SecurityException - if a security manager is installed and it denies an unspecified permission to access the file system
