Wording changes to pathlib docs. 

Only possibly-controversial change: joinpath() was described as:

  "Calling this method is equivalent to indexing the path with each of
  the *other* arguments in turn."

'Indexing' is an odd word to use, because you can't subscript Path or
PurePath objects, so I changed it to "combining".
