[issue38499] Add rmtree() to pathlib.Path

[Serhiy Storchaka]

Concur with Karthikeyan.

pathlib.Path provides an object oriented interface to file path operations and to low-level filesystem operations. rmtree() is a high-level and complex operation. Instead of adding more and more complex operations to the Path class we added support of Path (and more generally, path-like objects) in many other functions.

----------
resolution:  -> duplicate
stage:  -> resolved
status: open -> closed
superseder:  -> pathlib.Path wants an rmtree method
