[issue46148] Optimize pathlib

Sure, though code that *doesn't* use attrgetter is usually easier to read -- attrgetter is rare enough in my experience that I usually have to look it up. So making attrgetter unnecessary in most cases would also be welcome.

(The exception is when you have many trivial pass-through properties, or when the attribute name is a variable to begin with.)
