Add additional pointers to pathlib's mapping to os.path functions (#94828)
* Add additional pointers to pathlib's mapping to os.path functions os.path.splitext has a somewhat quirky signature since it mixes the path and filename components but I wanted the documentation to mention `PurePath.stem` as the natural counterpart to `PurePath.suffix` for the common use of `os.path.splitext` to turn "file.py" into "file" and "py". Technically this could have some discussion of how to handle the parent directory hierarchy but that seems a bit out of keeping with the spirit of this table so I omitted mentioning `PurePath.parents` here. * Update Doc/library/pathlib.rst Co-authored-by: Ezio Melotti <ezio.melotti@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Ezio Melotti <ezio.melotti@gmail.com>
