[issue31961] subprocess._execute_child doesn't accept a single PathLike argument for args

[Gregory P. Smith]

Gregory P. Smith <greg at krypto.org> added the comment:

I'm fine with undoing this for 3.7 in light of the many things we don't do "right" all over the place with path like objects.

subprocess still presents as a mix of high and low level APIs so if we accept a path like object in a subset of places it seems like that'll add complexity to the APIs rather than being consistent.
