[3.13] GH-89727: Partially fix `shutil.rmtree()` recursion error on deep trees (GH-119634) (#119748)
GH-89727: Partially fix `shutil.rmtree()` recursion error on deep trees (GH-119634) Make `shutil._rmtree_unsafe()` call `os.walk()`, which is implemented without recursion. `shutil._rmtree_safe_fd()` is not affected and can still raise a recursion error. (cherry picked from commit a150679f90c6e3f017bd75cac3b8f727063cc4aa) Co-authored-by: Barney Gale <barney.gale@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Jelle Zijlstra <jelle.zijlstra@gmail.com>

+is raised on deep directory trees. A recursion error is no longer raised
