Add `ntpath.isreserved()`, which identifies reserved pathnames such as "NUL", "AUX" and "CON".
Deprecate `pathlib.PurePath.is_reserved()`.

On Windows, `os.path.isabs()` now returns `False` when given a path that
starts with exactly one (back)slash. This is more compatible with other
functions in `os.path`, and with Microsoft's own documentation.
Also adjust `pathlib.PureWindowsPath.is_absolute()` to call
`ntpath.isabs()`, which corrects its handling of partial UNC/device paths
like `//foo`.

In `test_pathlib`, the `check_drive_root_parts` test methods evaluated
both joining and parsing/normalisation of paths. This dates from a time
when pathlib implemented both functions itself, but nowadays path joining
is done with `posixpath.join()` and `ntpath.join()`.
This commit moves the joining-related test cases into `test_posixpath` and
`test_ntpath`.
* Use `FindFirstFile` Win32 API to fix a bug where `ntpath.realpath()`
breaks out of traversing a series of paths where a (handled)
`ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED` or `ERROR_SHARING_VIOLATION` occurs.
* Update docs to reflect that `ntpath.realpath()` eliminates MS-DOS
style names.
* gh-106242: Make ntpath.realpath errors consistent with abspath when there are embedded nulls
* Update 2023-08-22-00-36-57.gh-issue-106242.q24ITw.rst
mention Windows and the former incorrect ValueError.

* Strings with length from 2**31-1 to 2**32-2 always caused MemoryError,
it doesn't matter how much memory is available.
* Strings with length exactly 2**32-1 caused OSError.
* Strings longer than 2**32-1 characters were truncated due to integer overflow bug.
* Strings containing the null character were truncated at the first null character.
Now strings longer than 2**31-1 characters caused OverflowError and the null character is allowed.
We no longer add a root to device paths such as `//./PhysicalDrive0`,
`//?/BootPartition` and `//./c:` while normalizing. We also avoid adding a
root to incomplete UNC share paths, like `//`, `//a` and `//a/`.

This brings the Python implementation of `ntpath.normpath()` in line with the C implementation added in 99fcf15

The getpath.py file is frozen at build time and executed as code over a namespace. It is never imported, nor is it meant to be importable or reusable. However, it should be easier to read, modify, and patch than the previous code.
This commit attempts to preserve every previously tested quirk, but these may be changed in the future to better align platforms.
This makes `ntpath.expanduser()` match `pathlib.Path.expanduser()` in this regard, and is more in line with `posixpath.expanduser()`'s cautious approach.
Also remove the near-duplicate implementation of `expanduser()` in pathlib, and by doing so fix a bug where KeyError could be raised when expanding another user's home directory.
Ensure isabs() is always True for \\?\ prefixed paths
Avoid unnecessary usage of readlink() to avoid resolving broken links incorrectly
Ensure shutil tests run in test directory
