Enhance os.scandir() doc
Issue #26248, patch written by Ben Hoyt: 1) Clarify that the return values of is_dir()/is_file()/etc are cached separately for follow_symlinks True and False. 2) Be more specific about when the functions require a system call, and how it relates to caching and follow_symlinks. 3) DRY up common stuff between is_dir and is_file by saying "Caching, system calls made, and exceptions raised are as per is_dir" in is_file. 4) Tweak to the first paragraph of docs for is_dir/is_file to simplify: assume the follow_symlinks=True default, then note the follow_symlinks=False non-default case after.
