[3.14] gh-84548: Document Windows specific behavior of abspath() and realpath() (GH-155388) (GH-155674)

On Windows abspath() resolves a drive-relative path against the current
directory of the specified drive, capitalizes the drive letter and strips
trailing dots and spaces, so the result can differ from
normpath(join(os.getcwd(), path)).  realpath() returns the path in the case
reported by the operating system.
