[New-bugs-announce] [issue42497] New pathlib.Path attribute

[ThatXliner]

New submission from ThatXliner <bryan.hu.2020 at gmail.com>:

Add an attribute to pathlib.Path testing if a file/directory/symlink is executable or the user has executable permissions.

I've been trying to find a pythonic way for this (preferably in pathlib.Path) but all I found was trips to the shell and back.

This issue proposes adding an attribute (which I haven't figured the name most would like but it would be somewhere near .can_execute or .is_exe)
