Replace tri-state `follow_symlinks` with boolean `recurse_symlinks` argument. The new argument controls whether symlinks are followed when expanding recursive `**` wildcards. The possible argument values correspond as follows:
follow_symlinks recurse_symlinks
=============== ================
False N/A
None False
True True
We therefore drop support for not following symlinks when expanding non-recursive pattern parts; it wasn't requested in the original issue, and it's a feature not found in any shells.
This makes the API a easier to grok by eliminating `None` as an option.
No news blurb as `follow_symlinks` was new in 3.13.
