Add os.path.supports_unicode_filenames for all platforms,
...

Including doc and NEWS entries.

Minor revision to the "\\" patch, including updating the docs a little to
...
accomodate the fact that they are more general now that they are for the
os.path module and not just posixpath.
This and the previous patch should be combined and applied to the 2.2-maint
branch.

Change the markup a bit more; the parameter was not marked as \var in the

sample code, and the note was marked as a logical thing.

Clean up some markup cruft. A number of the macros that take no
...
parameters (like \UNIX) are commonly entered using an empty group to
separate the markup from a following inter-word space; this is not
needed when the next character is punctuation, or the markup is the
last thing in the enclosing group. These cases were marked
inconsistently; the empty group is now *only* used when needed.

Use the \note and \warning macros where appropriate.

SF patch #461781 by Chris Lawrence: os.path.realpath - Resolve symlinks:
...
Once upon a time, I put together a little function
that tries to find the canonical filename for a given
pathname on POSIX. I've finally gotten around to
turning it into a proper patch with documentation.
On non-POSIX, I made it an alias for 'abspath', as
that's the behavior on POSIX when no symlinks are
encountered in the path.
Example:
>>> os.path.realpath('/usr/bin/X11/X')
'/usr/X11R6/bin/X'

Add a version annotation for splitdrive(); old, but as long as I managed
...
to end up with the information, it is better recorded than lost.

Explained that os.path.basename() may return something different from the
...
basename program, as suggested by Gregor Hoffleit <gregor@hoffleit.de>.
This closes bug #119485 .

update commonprefix doc to make sure user is aware it works

character-by-character and that that behavior may result in it returning
prefixes that are not valid paths

Document splitdrive().

For all split*(), these split path *into* pairs, not split path *in*
pairs. "Into" can be used for transformations, "in" is for
containment.

Change this to be os.path.

Use consistent parameter naming with the os documentation (paths
always named "path" or "path1", "path2"...).

Move files around to get the names to match the module names except for
