ShellFolderTryParseItem Method

Parses a display name for a Shell Item that may not exist. This method is only implemented for file system Shell Items. It will use the CreateFileSystemItem and CreateFileSystemFolder that you can override if you want it to use your derived classes instead. If you override it, make sure you also override TryGetDisplayName, TryGetAttributes and TryGetPropertyValue in a consistent manner.
