[issue28564] shutil.rmtree is inefficient due to listdir() instead of scandir()

[Serhiy Storchaka]

Serhiy Storchaka added the comment:

Proposed patch implements shutil.rmtree using os.scandir. Needed file descriptors support in os.scandir (issue25996). I did not test how this affects the performance of shutil.rmtree.
