name:
----
We are down to two choices:
- __fspath__, or
- __fspathname__
The final choice I suspect will be affected by the choice to allow (or
not) bytes.
method or attribute:
-------------------
method
built-in:
--------
Almost - we'll put it in the os module
add to str:
----------
No, not all strings are paths.
add to C API:
------------
Yes. Possible names include PyUnicode_FromFSPath and PyObject_Path --
again, the choice of bytes inclusion will affect the final choice of name.
add a Path ABC:
--------------
undecided
Sticking points:
---------------
Do we allow bytes to be returned from os.fspath()? If yes, then do we
allow bytes from __fspath__()?
