[issue39906] pathlib.Path: add `follow_symlinks` argument to `stat()` and `chmod()`

[Barney Gale]

New submission from Barney Gale :

As of Python 3.3, `os.lstat()` and `os.lchmod()` are available as 
`os.stat(follow_symlinks=False)` and `os.chmod(follow_symlinks=False)`, but an 
equivalent change didn't make it into pathlib. I propose we add the  
`follow_symlinks` argument to `Path.stat()` and `Path.chmod()` for consistency 
with `os` and because the new notation is arguable clearer for people who don't 
know many system calls off by heart :)
