[issue41357] pathlib.Path.resolve incorrect os.path equivalent

[Jendrik Weise]

New submission from Jendrik Weise <jewe37 at gmail.com>:

According to the table at the bottom of the pathlib documentation Path.resolve() is equivalent to os.path.abspath(path). In contrast to the latter Path.resolve() does follow symlinks though, making it more similar to os.path.realpath(path).
