2100b42317 #4489: Fix usage of fd-based functions to new api introduced earlier today
Also add an explicit test for safe implementation usage on supported platforms.

As a side effect, this commit adds a module-level attribute 'rmtree_is_safe'
which offers introspection whether the current rmtree implementation is safe
against symlink attacks.

0a08d7a095 Issue #9993: When the source and destination are on different filesystems,
and the source is a symlink, shutil.move() now recreates a symlink on the
destination instead of copying the file contents.

78091e63d6 Issue #12715: Add an optional symlinks argument to shutil functions (copyfile, copymode, copystat, copy, copy2).
When that parameter is true, symlinks aren't dereferenced and the operation
instead acts on the symlink itself (or creates one, if relevant).

Patch by Hynek Schlawack.

e4d5b8e646 Clean up shutil.disk_usage.
- Move a test from call time to define time
- Add the function name to __all__
- Improve docstring and docs

A few lines are now duplicated (named tuple definition and docstring)
but I think the end result reads better.
