Remove PathTest.dirlink() function. Symlinks in PathTest.setUp() are created using os.symlink() directly; symlinks in test functions use Path.symlink_to() in order to make the tests applicable to a (near-)future AbstractPath class.

  • Issue: Add tarfile.TarPath #89812

I'm not an expert on symlink handling, but while it does make the test code slightly less concise, there appears to be a motivated reason to do so, it eliminates a workaround, and is needed for future improvements. I also couldn't spot any obvious issues in the implementation, though again, I defer to Barney and others regarding SME issues.
