[3.10] GH-95815: Document less specific error for os.remove (GH-99571) (#99639)

GH-95815: Document less specific error for os.remove (GH-99571)

os.remove can raise PermissionError instead of IsADirectoryError,
when the object to be removed is a directory (in particular on
macOS).

This reverts a change done in GH-14262.
(cherry picked from commit 1cae31d26b)
