[issue16353] add function to os module for getting path to default shell

[Antoine Pitrou]

Antoine Pitrou added the comment:

Is it the "system default shell" or the user's default shell that we want here?

That is, shouldn't we look up `pwd.getpwuid(os.getuid()).pw_shell` ?
(but only when os.getuid() == os.geteuid()?)
