Makdon 95492032c4 bpo-6689: os.path.commonpath raises ValueError for different drives isn't documented (GH-14045)
It would raise ValueError("Paths don't have the same drive") if the paths on different drivers, which is not documented.


os.path.commonpath raises ValueError when the *paths* are in different drivers, but it is not documented.
Update the document according @Windsooon 's suggestion.
It actually raise ValueError according line 355 of [test of path](https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/master/Lib/test/test_ntpath.py)

bpo-33721: Make some os.path functions and pathlib.Path methods be tolerant to invalid paths. (#7695)
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.

Link to `os.path.exists()` from `os.path.is*()`.

Brian Curtin 490b32a397 Fix #11939. Set st_dev attribute on Windows to simplify os.path.samefile.
By setting the st_dev attribute, we can then remove some Windows-specific
code and move os.path.samefile/sameopenfile/samestat to Lib/genericpath.py
so all platforms share the same implementation.
