GH-101357: Suppress `OSError` from `pathlib.Path.exists()` and `is_*()` (#118243)

Suppress all `OSError` exceptions from `pathlib.Path.exists()` and `is_*()`
rather than a selection of more common errors as we do presently. Also
adjust the implementations to call `os.path.exists()` etc, which are much
faster on Windows thanks to GH-101196.

The methods given above now return ``False`` instead of raising any
:exc:`OSError` exception from the operating system. In previous versions,
some kinds of :exc:`OSError` exception are raised, and others suppressed.
The new behaviour is consistent with :func:`os.path.exists`,
