Issue #14626: Large refactoring of functions / parameters in the os module.
Many functions now support "dir_fd" and "follow_symlinks" parameters;
some also support accepting an open file descriptor in place of of a path
string. Added os.support_* collections as LBYL helpers. Removed many
functions only previously seen in 3.3 alpha releases (often starting with
"f" or "l", or ending with "at"). Originally suggested by Serhiy Storchaka;
implemented by Larry Hastings.
