Add `pathlib._abc.PathModuleBase` (#113893)

Path modules provide a subset of the `os.path` API, specifically those
functions needed to provide `PurePathBase` functionality. Each
`PurePathBase` subclass references its path module via a `pathmod` class
attribute.

This commit adds a new `PathModuleBase` class, which provides abstract
methods that unconditionally raise `UnsupportedOperation`. An instance of
this class is assigned to `PurePathBase.pathmod`, replacing `posixpath`.
As a result, `PurePathBase` is no longer POSIX-y by default, and
all its methods raise `UnsupportedOperation` courtesy of `pathmod`.

Users who subclass `PurePathBase` or `PathBase` should choose the path
syntax by setting `pathmod` to `posixpath`, `ntpath`, `os.path`, or their
own subclass of `PathModuleBase`, as circumstances demand.
