Bug report
For the following tree, where ./b is not a package, PathFinder.find_spec("a.b") raises an undocumented KeyError:

.
├── a
│   ├── b.py
└── b

>>> from importlib.machinery import PathFinder
>>> PathFinder.find_spec("a.b")
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "<frozen importlib._bootstrap_external>", line 1439, in find_spec
  File "<frozen importlib._bootstrap_external>", line 1218, in __init__
  File "<frozen importlib._bootstrap_external>", line 1233, in _get_parent_path
KeyError: 'a'

Works as expected if a is provided as the path argument:

>>> PathFinder.find_spec("a.b", path=["a"])
ModuleSpec(name='a.b', loader=<_frozen_importlib_external.SourceFileLoader object at 0x100d37d30>, origin='/Users/myuser/a/b.py')

I see from #89754 that this is invalid/poor usage, but probably None is the better outcome?
