This PR adds Pathlib support to most pygame functions where a file is taken in as an argument. This includes pygame.image, pygame.mixer, pygame.music, pygame.font, pygame.ftfont and pygame.freetype (basically, wherever the internal function pg_EncodeString is called)
It was a relatively simple addition, yet much needed as many people have asked for this.
There was a previous attempt to do this, but that PR did not work on py 3.5. This PR makes sure it does.
Issues this PR aims to close are #1129 #1635
Unit tests and docs coming soon :)
