Add `ntpath.isreserved()`, which identifies reserved pathnames such as "NUL", "AUX" and "CON".
Deprecate `pathlib.PurePath.is_reserved()`.

On Windows, `os.path.isabs()` now returns `False` when given a path that
starts with exactly one (back)slash. This is more compatible with other
functions in `os.path`, and with Microsoft's own documentation.
Also adjust `pathlib.PureWindowsPath.is_absolute()` to call
`ntpath.isabs()`, which corrects its handling of partial UNC/device paths
like `//foo`.

* Use `FindFirstFile` Win32 API to fix a bug where `ntpath.realpath()`
breaks out of traversing a series of paths where a (handled)
`ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED` or `ERROR_SHARING_VIOLATION` occurs.
* Update docs to reflect that `ntpath.realpath()` eliminates MS-DOS
style names.
* gh-106242: Make ntpath.realpath errors consistent with abspath when there are embedded nulls
* Update 2023-08-22-00-36-57.gh-issue-106242.q24ITw.rst
mention Windows and the former incorrect ValueError.

This brings the Python implementation of `ntpath.normpath()` in line with the C implementation added in 99fcf15

The getpath.py file is frozen at build time and executed as code over a namespace. It is never imported, nor is it meant to be importable or reusable. However, it should be easier to read, modify, and patch than the previous code.
This commit attempts to preserve every previously tested quirk, but these may be changed in the future to better align platforms.
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.
Ensure isabs() is always True for \\?\ prefixed paths
Avoid unnecessary usage of readlink() to avoid resolving broken links incorrectly
Ensure shutil tests run in test directory
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.
