When a `_PathParents` object has a drive or a root, the length of the
object is *one less* than than the length of `self._parts`, which resulted
in an off-by-one error when `path.parents[-n]` was fed through to
`self._parts[:-n - 1]`. In particular, `path.parents[-1]` was a malformed
path object with spooky properties.
This is addressed by adding `len(self)` to negative indices.

The argument order of `link_to()` is reversed compared to what one may expect, so:
a.link_to(b)
Might be expected to create *a* as a link to *b*, in fact it creates *b* as a link to *a*, making it function more like a "link from". This doesn't match `symlink_to()` nor the documentation and doesn't seem to be the original author's intent.
This PR deprecates `link_to()` and introduces `hardlink_to()`, which has the same argument order as `symlink_to()`.
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.
This commit also fixes up some of the overlapping documentation changed
in bpo-35498, which added support for indexing with slices.
Fixes bpo-21041.

Added slice support to the `pathlib.Path.parents` sequence. For a `Path` `p`, slices of `p.parents` should return the same thing as slices of `tuple(p.parents)`.
* Add _newline_ parameter to `pathlib.Path.write_text()`
* Update documentation of `pathlib.Path.write_text()`
* Add test case for `pathlib.Path.write_text()` calls with _newline_ parameter passed

In bpo-36264 os.path.expanduser was changed to ignore HOME on Windows.
Path.expanduser/home still honored HOME despite being documented as behaving the same
as os.path.expanduser. This makes them also ignore HOME so that both implementations
behave the same way again.
Commit 6b5b013bcc ("bpo-26978: Implement pathlib.Path.link_to (Using
os.link) (GH-12990)") introduced a new link_to method in pathlib. However,
this makes pathlib crash when the 'os' module is missing a 'link' method.
Fix this by checking for the presence of the 'link' method on pathlib
module import, and if it's not present, turn it into a runtime error like
those emitted when there is no lchmod() or symlink().

This adds a "readlink" method to pathlib.Path objects that calls through
to os.readlink.

Test that they do not keep too many file descriptors open for the host OS in a reasonable test scenario.
See [bpo-37935](https://bugs.python.org/issue37935).
Similarly to how several pathlib file creation functions have an "exists_ok" parameter, we should introduce "missing_ok" that makes removal functions not raise an exception when a file or directory is already absent. IMHO, this should cover Path.unlink and Path.rmdir. Note, Path.resolve() has a "strict" parameter since 3.6 that does the same thing. Naming this of this new parameter tries to be consistent with the "exists_ok" parameter as that is more explicit about what it does (as opposed to "strict").

Such functions as os.path.exists(), os.path.lexists(), os.path.isdir(),
os.path.isfile(), os.path.islink(), and os.path.ismount() now return False
instead of raising ValueError or its subclasses UnicodeEncodeError
and UnicodeDecodeError for paths that contain characters or bytes
unrepresentative at the OS level.
