bpo-41490: ``path`` and ``contents`` to aggressively close handles (#22915)
* bpo-41490: ``path`` method to aggressively close handles * Add blurb * In ZipReader.contents, eagerly evaluate the contents to release references to the zipfile. * Instead use _ensure_sequence to ensure any iterable from a reader is eagerly converted to a list if it's not already a sequence.

+In ``importlib.resources``, ``.path`` method is more aggressive about
+releasing handles to zipfile objects early, enabling use-cases like certifi
+to leave the context open but delete the underlying zip file.
