Archives with long paths fail to extract

[aaronpowell]

If you try and expand an archive which contains files that have long paths in it Expand-Archive will raise errors and not properly expand the contents.

Repo script

New-Item -Path "C:\tmp" -ItemType Directory
Invoke-WebRequest -Uri 'https://github.com/nodejs/node-chakracore/releases/download/node-chakracore-v8.6.0/node-v8.6.0-win-x64.zip' -OutFile 'C:\tmp\node-v8.6.0-win-x64.zip'
Push-Location 'C:\tmp'
Expand-Archive -Path 'node-v8.6.0-win-x64.zip'
Pop-Location

Error message is:

New-Item : The specified path, file name, or both are too long. The fully qualified file name must be less than 260 characters, and the directory name must be less than 248 characters.
At C:\WINDOWS\system32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\Modules\Microsoft.PowerShell.Archive\Microsoft.PowerShell.Archive.psm1:984 char:25
+ ...             New-Item $currentArchiveEntryFileInfo.DirectoryName -Type ...
+                 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    + CategoryInfo          : WriteError: (C:\tmp\node-v8....les\is-arrayish:String) [New-Item], PathTooLongException
    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : CreateDirectoryIOError,Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.NewItemCommand

It would appear to be this line that causes the problem, so it's related to how New-Item handles long paths.
