TarFile.add seems to support pathlib.Path objects (and other PathLike string paths) starting at Python 3.6, for both name and arcname. The paths go to `os.path` functions that return strings.

Recently typeshed was updated to support passing pathlib.Paths in TarFile.add: https://github.com/python/typeshed/pull/4369
