5f0c5d92ef Enhance os.scandir() doc
Issue #26248, patch written by Ben Hoyt:

1) Clarify that the return values of is_dir()/is_file()/etc are cached
   separately for follow_symlinks True and False.
2) Be more specific about when the functions require a system call, and how it
   relates to caching and follow_symlinks.
3) DRY up common stuff between is_dir and is_file by saying "Caching, system
   calls made, and exceptions raised are as per is_dir" in is_file.
4) Tweak to the first paragraph of docs for is_dir/is_file to simplify: assume
   the follow_symlinks=True default, then note the follow_symlinks=False
   non-default case after.

050391774a Issue #25930: Document that os.unlink and os.remove are *semantically* identical.
Saying that the functions were identical confused some users who were
upset when the functions were no longer simply the same function under
different names.

Thanks to Anthony Sottile for the bug report and Swati Jaiswal for the
initial patch.
