[issue39461] [RFE] os.environ should support Path-like values, like subprocess(..., env=...)

[Serhiy Storchaka]

Path-like objects are now unintentionally accepted for many non-path things, like hostname in socket.sethostname() and username in os.initgroups(). I also think it was a mistake, and we should not make new mistakes.
