Use the new PathBase.scandir() method in PathBase.walk(), which greatly reduces the number of PathBase.stat() calls needed when walking.

There are no user-facing changes, because the pathlib ABCs are still private and Path.walk() doesn't use the implementation in its superclass.

Use the new `PathBase.scandir()` method in `PathBase.walk()`, which greatly
reduces the number of `PathBase.stat()` calls needed when walking.
