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

Fixes Issue39285
The example incorrectly returned True for match.
Furthermore the example is ambiguous in its usage of PureWindowsPath.
Windows is case-insensitve, however the underlying match functionality
utilizes fnmatch.fnmatchcase.

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

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.
This adds support both to pathlib.PurePath's constructor as well as
implementing __fspath__(). This removes the provisional status for
pathlib.
Initial patch by Dusty Phillips.
These added a path attribute to pathlib.Path objects, and docs.
Instead, we're going to use PEP 519.
(Starting in the 3.4 branch and merging forward from there since that's what I did originally.)
