We should be able to callos.scandir() frompathlib.Path.iterdir() and construct results based on theos.DirEntry.path string.

Currently we callos.listdir() and_make_child_relpath(), which returns a fully parsed/normalized string; particularly, it sets_str,_drv,_root and_tail_cached.

It's probably not worth the expense of setting_drv,_root and_tail_cached - they're only useful when paths are subsequently deconstructed withPurePath methods, which isn't particularly common. Itis worth setting_str, and happilyos.DirEntry.path provides a string that's very nearly normalized to pathlib's standards.
