GH-121462: pathlib docs: improve table of corresponding os/os.path functions (#121465)

Re-order table of corresponding functions with the following priorities:

1. Pure functionality is at the top
2. `os.path` functions are shown before `os` functions
3. Similar functionality is kept together
4. Functionality follows docs order where possible

Add a few missed correspondences:

- `os.path.isjunction` and `Path.is_junction`
- `os.path.ismount` and `Path.is_mount`
- `os.lstat()` and `Path.lstat()`
- `os.lchmod()` and `Path.lchmod()`

Also add footnotes describing a few differences.

+
+.. [1] :func:`os.path.relpath` calls :func:`~os.path.abspath` to make paths
+   absolute and remove "``..``" parts, whereas :meth:`PurePath.relative_to`
+   is a lexical operation that raises :exc:`ValueError` when its inputs'
+   anchors differ (e.g. if one path is absolute and the other relative.)
+.. [2] :func:`os.path.expanduser` returns the path unchanged if the home
+   directory can't be resolved, whereas :meth:`Path.expanduser` raises
+   :exc:`RuntimeError`.
+.. [3] :func:`os.path.abspath` removes "``..``" components without resolving
+   symlinks, which may change the meaning of the path, whereas
+   :meth:`Path.absolute` leaves any "``..``" components in the path.
+.. [4] :func:`os.walk` always follows symlinks when categorizing paths into
+   *dirnames* and *filenames*, whereas :meth:`Path.walk` categorizes all
+   symlinks into *filenames* when *follow_symlinks* is false (the default.)
