Description
In #1085, we allowed creation of Zarr-v3 arrays without explicitly requiring path. In revisiting the downstream xarray tests in pydata/xarray#6475, I found that path=None still needs to be fixed for the case of consolidated metadata.
I can make a PR to fix this, but we likely still need a new ZEP for consolidated metadata support as what is currently in the v3 experimental API is not defined in the spec, but just mirrors some v2 behavior.
Steps to reproduce
encountered via the TestZarrKVStoreV3.test_zero_dimensional_variable
test case proposed in pydata/xarray#6475
