We don't want to add another API, since the recipe is straightforward and rarely needed.
The advantage is that we could backport this to the earliest Python version that has taskgroups (3.11, alas in security mode already, so we'll just do 3.12 and 3.13).
Update TOML description to include version number
There is some movement, currently blocked, that would update the TOML spec to 1.1.0; this would include breaking changes to what characters are allowed. Thus, it is worthwhile for the library page to be clear which version is implemented here.

Remove *ignore* and *on_error* arguments from `pathlib.Path.copy[_into]()`,
because these arguments are under-designed. Specifically:
- *ignore* is appropriated from `shutil.copytree()`, but it's not clear
how it should apply when the user copies a non-directory. We've changed
the callback signature from the `shutil` version, but I'm not confident
the new signature is as good as it can be.
- *on_error* is a generalisation of `shutil.copytree()`'s error handling,
which is to accumulate exceptions and raise a single `shutil.Error` at
the end. It's not obvious which solution is better.
Additionally, this arguments may be challenging to implement in future user
subclasses of `PathBase`, which might utilise a native recursive copying
method.
Per feedback from Paul Moore on GH-123158, it's better to defer making
`Path.delete()` public than ship it with under-designed error handling
capabilities.
We leave a remnant `_delete()` method, which is used by `move()`. Any
functionality not needed by `move()` is deleted.
These two methods accept an *existing* directory path, onto which we join
the source path's base name to form the final target path.
A possible alternative implementation is to check for directories in
`copy()` and `move()` and adjust the target path, which is done in several
`shutil` functions. This behaviour is helpful in a shell context, but
less so in a stored program that explicitly specifies destinations. For
example, a user that calls `Path('foo.py').copy('bar.py')` might not
imagine that `bar.py/foo.py` would be created, but under the alternative
implementation this will happen if `bar.py` is an existing directory.
Add a `Path.move()` method that moves a file or directory tree, and returns a new `Path` instance pointing to the target.
This method is similar to `shutil.move()`, except that it doesn't accept a *copy_function* argument, and it doesn't check whether the destination is an existing directory.

Rename `pathlib.Path.copy()` to `_copy_file()` (i.e. make it private.)
Rename `pathlib.Path.copytree()` to `copy()`, and add support for copying
non-directories. This simplifies the interface for users, and nicely
complements the upcoming `move()` and `delete()` methods (which will also
accept any type of file.)

Rename `pathlib.Path.rmtree()` to `delete()`, and add support for deleting
non-directories. This simplifies the interface for users, and nicely
complements the upcoming `move()` and `copy()` methods (which will also
accept any type of file.)
This flag was added as an escape hatch in gh-91401 and backported to
Python 3.10. The flag broke at some point between its addition and now.
As there is currently no publicly known environments that require this,
remove it rather than work on fixing it.
This leaves the flag in the subprocess module to not break code which
may have used / checked the flag itself.

## Encode header parts that contain newlines
Per RFC 2047:
> [...] these encoding schemes allow the
> encoding of arbitrary octet values, mail readers that implement this
> decoding should also ensure that display of the decoded data on the
> recipient's terminal will not cause unwanted side-effects
It seems that the "quoted-word" scheme is a valid way to include
a newline character in a header value, just like we already allow
undecodable bytes or control characters.
They do need to be properly quoted when serialized to text, though.
## Verify that email headers are well-formed
This should fail for custom fold() implementations that aren't careful
about newlines.

Re-order table of corresponding functions with the following priorities:
1. Pure functionality is at the top
2. `os.path` functions are shown before `os` functions
3. Similar functionality is kept together
4. Functionality follows docs order where possible
Add a few missed correspondences:
- `os.path.isjunction` and `Path.is_junction`
- `os.path.ismount` and `Path.is_mount`
- `os.lstat()` and `Path.lstat()`
- `os.lchmod()` and `Path.lchmod()`
Also add footnotes describing a few differences.

Adds a --with-app-store-compliance configuration option that patches out code known to be an issue with App Store review processes. This option is applied automatically on iOS, and optionally on macOS.
Add *preserve_metadata* keyword-only argument to `pathlib.Path.copytree()`,
defaulting to false. When set to true, we copy timestamps, permissions,
extended attributes and flags where available, like `shutil.copystat()`.
Add a `Path.rmtree()` method that removes an entire directory tree, like
`shutil.rmtree()`. The signature of the optional *on_error* argument
matches the `Path.walk()` argument of the same name, but differs from the
*onexc* and *onerror* arguments to `shutil.rmtree()`. Consistency within
pathlib is probably more important.
In the private pathlib ABCs, we add an implementation based on `walk()`.

They are alternate constructors which only accept numbers
(including objects with special methods __float__, __complex__
and __index__), but not strings.
It is our general practice to make new optional parameters keyword-only,
even if the existing parameters are all positional-or-keyword. Passing
this parameter as positional would look confusing and could be error-prone
if additional parameters are added in the future.
Add *preserve_metadata* keyword-only argument to `pathlib.Path.copy()`, defaulting to false. When set to true, we copy timestamps, permissions, extended attributes and flags where available, like `shutil.copystat()`. The argument has no effect on Windows, where metadata is always copied.
Internally (in the pathlib ABCs), path types gain `_readable_metadata` and `_writable_metadata` attributes. These sets of strings describe what kinds of metadata can be retrieved and stored. We take an intersection of `source._readable_metadata` and `target._writable_metadata` to minimise reads/writes. A new `_read_metadata()` method accepts a set of metadata keys and returns a dict with those keys, and a new `_write_metadata()` method accepts a dict of metadata. We *might* make these public in future, but it's hard to justify while the ABCs are still private.
In `{str,bytes}.strip(chars)`, multiple characters are not treated as a
prefix/suffix, but as individual characters. This may make users confuse
whether `split` has similar behavior.
Users may incorrectly expect that
`'Good morning, John.'.split(', .') == ['Good', 'morning', 'John']`
Adding a bit of clarification in the doc.

This amends 6988ff02a5: memory allocation for
stginfo->ffi_type_pointer.elements in PyCSimpleType_init() should be
more generic (perhaps someday fmt->pffi_type->elements will be not a
two-elements array).
It should finally resolve#61103.

Check for `ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER` when calling `_winapi.CopyFile2()` and
raise `UnsupportedOperation`. In `Path.copy()`, handle this exception and
fall back to the `PathBase.copy()` implementation.
Add dedicated subsection for `home()`, `expanduser()`, `cwd()`,
`absolute()`, `resolve()` and `readlink()`. The position of this section
keeps all the `Path` constructors (`Path()`, `Path.from_uri()`,
`Path.home()` and `Path.cwd()`) near the top. Within the section, closely
related methods are kept adjacent. Specifically:
-.`home()` and `expanduser()` (the former calls the latter)
- `cwd()` and `absolute()` (the former calls the latter)
- `absolute()` and `resolve()` (both make paths absolute)
- `resolve()` and `readlink()` (both read symlink targets)
- Ditto `cwd()` and `absolute()`
- Ditto `absolute()` and `resolve()`
The "Other methods" section is removed.
* Move pprinter parameters description to the table
The change improves readability.
Suggested in the GH#116085 PR discussion.
* Make pprint doc with params markup

Add `pathlib.Path.copytree()` method, which recursively copies one
directory to another.
This differs from `shutil.copytree()` in the following respects:
1. Our method has a *follow_symlinks* argument, whereas shutil's has a
*symlinks* argument with an inverted meaning.
2. Our method lacks something like a *copy_function* argument. It always
uses `Path.copy()` to copy files.
3. Our method lacks something like a *ignore_dangling_symlinks* argument.
Instead, users can filter out danging symlinks with *ignore*, or
ignore exceptions with *on_error*
4. Our *ignore* argument is a callable that accepts a single path object,
whereas shutil's accepts a path and a list of child filenames.
5. We add an *on_error* argument, which is a callable that accepts
an `OSError` instance. (`Path.walk()` also accepts such a callable).

Add support for not following symlinks in `pathlib.Path.copy()`.
On Windows we add the `COPY_FILE_COPY_SYMLINK` flag is following symlinks is disabled. If the source is symlink to a directory, this call will fail with `ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED`. In this case we add `COPY_FILE_DIRECTORY` to the flags and retry. This can fail on old Windowses, which we note in the docs.
No news as `copy()` was only just added.
The `inspect.ismethoddescriptor()` function did not check for the lack of
`__delete__()` and, consequently, erroneously returned True when applied
to *data* descriptors with only `__get__()` and `__delete__()` defined.

Add thread-safety clarifications to the SSLContext documentation. Per the issue:
This issue has also come up [here](https://github.com/psf/requests/pull/6667) where the matter was clarified by @tiran in [this comment](https://github.com/psf/requests/pull/6667):
> `SSLContext` is designed to be shared and used for multiple connections. It is thread safe as long as you don't reconfigure it once it is used by a connection. Adding new certs to the internal trust store is fine, but changing ciphers, verification settings, or mTLS certs can lead to surprising behavior. The problem is unrelated to threads and can even occur in a single-threaded program.
