[issue9850] obsolete macpath module dangerously broken and should be removed

[Serhiy Storchaka]

Serhiy Storchaka added the comment:

In third-party code the path manipulating functions can be used in unexpected manner than doesn't relate to paths on MacOS. Also "import macpath" can be left even with the use of macpath was eliminated or are dead code. There is a chance to break third-party code when just remove macpath without deprecation period.
