Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Passing NSURL objects (representing a file path) from ObjC to Python code can be tedious, I have a wrapper which calls [NSURL fileSystemRepresentation] and then copies that into an NSString to pass to Python code.

Describe the solution you'd like
If NSURL implemented the os.PathLike protocol to make it a path-like object, Python file APIs would be able to use NSURL objects directly.

With this change it is possbile to use NSURL instances
that refer to a local filesystem path with Python APIs
that expect a pathlike object.

This feature will be included in the next release of PyObjC (10.1), which will be released around the time macOS 14.2 is released.
