path.py (now `path`)

The `path` library (formerly known as `path.py`) provides an object-oriented way to interact with file system paths, acting as a convenient wrapper around `os.path`. It implements path objects as first-class entities, allowing common file operations to be invoked directly on these objects. It aims to offer a superior experience to similar offerings, including Python's built-in `pathlib`, by providing more robust cross-platform abstractions and ease of subclassing. The current version is 17.1.1, with a regular release cadence as seen from its active GitHub development.
