[macOS] - Special characters in the replay directory are not recognized

[Langbart]

[macOS] If a replay folder contains a special character e.g. \ (backslash) or / (slash) no replay is being displayed, not even a warning/ error shows up.
A similar issue was solved for special letters e.g. @ in ticket #6373 (1/Nov/21).
See image below for more clarity.

[Windows] Here the operating system gives you a notification that this is not allowed, this is not the case under macOS.

[15:59:47] elexis but there isnt even a replay showing up in the list
[15:59:53] Langbart right
[15:59:54] elexis so the getreplaypath function istn even called
[16:00:20] Langbart not even an error or warning comes up
[16:00:55] elexis that seems like a separate bug, thats on macOS?
[16:01:14] Langbart it can't handle "Slash, backslash" at least on mac, i will test it windows 10 with alpha23
[16:01:38] elexis this sucks
...
[18:43:55] elexis you might want to document the bug where a directory with a backslash in the name on macOS is not being picked up
