[issue44521] str.removeprefix(): add strict: bool

[Jelle Zijlstra]

Jelle Zijlstra <jelle.zijlstra at gmail.com> added the comment:

ValueError would seem to be the right exception to use.

If this parameter were to be added (I'm not convinced that it should be), I'd prefer to call it something more specific than "strict", since "strict" can mean lots of things.
