[New-bugs-announce] [issue25417] Minor typo in Path.samefile docstring

[Antony Lee]

New submission from Antony Lee:

The output of pydoc for Path.samefile currently reads

pathlib.Path.samefile = samefile(self, other_path)
    Return whether `other_file` is the same or not as this file.
    (as returned by os.path.samefile(file, other_file)).

It should arguably be something like

pathlib.Path.samefile = samefile(self, other_path)
    Return whether `other_path` is the same or not as this file.
    (as returned by os.path.samefile(file, other_file)).

or

pathlib.Path.samefile = samefile(self, other_path)
    Return whether `other_path` is the same or not as this file.
    (as returned by os.path.samefile(str(self), str(other_path))).
