Get info on a specific path

Calling this NMC API endpoint and specifying the Edge Appliance(Filer) serial and path, asks the NMC to give the requestor information it has about the specified path. This only works if the path is a "known path"-- In other words, if the path has recently been enumerated/stated by the NMC file browser or API call (Using "Refresh info about a given path").

Note: Paths are case-sensitive. The paths and path status endpoints will not return results if the wrong case is specified.
