Remove Path::from_bytes_with_nul_unchecked

Path::from_bytes_with_nul_unchecked was a wrapper for
CStr::from_bytes_with_nul_unchecked and Path::from_cstr_unchecked.
Keeping the two methods separate clearly communicates the requirements
and reduces the likelihood of unsound usage.

 ## Unreleased
 
-## Added
+### Added
 - Added object-safe traits `DynFile`, `DynFilesystem` and `DynStorage` for
   accessing `Storage`, `Filesystem` and `File` implementations for any storage.
 - Added `Filesystem::mount_or_else` function ([#57][])
 - Marked `Path::is_empty`, `Path::from_bytes_with_nul`, `Path::from_cstr`, `Path::from_cstr_unchecked`, `Path::as_str_ref_with_trailing_nul`, `Path::as_str`, and `PathBuf::new` as `const`.
 
-## Fixed
+### Fixed
 
 - Fixed macro hygiene for `path!`.
 - Fixed build error that would occur on Windows systems.
 - Fixed compilation without default features.
 - Added path iteration utilities ([#47][])
 
-## Changed
+### Changed
 
 - Enforced const evaluation for `path!`.
 - Removed `cstr_core` and `cty` dependencies.
 - Updated `littlefs2-sys` dependency to 0.2.0.
 
+### Removed
