In newer versions of Sphinx the env.doc2path() API is going to change
to return a Path object rather than a str. This was originally visible
in Sphinx 8.0.0rc1, but has been rolled back for the final 8.0.0
release. However it will probably emit a deprecation warning and is
likely to change for good in 9.0:
https://github.com/sphinx-doc/sphinx/issues/12686
Our use in depfile.py assumes a str, and if it is passed a Path
it will fall over:
Handler <function write_depfile at 0x77a1775ff560> for event 'build-finished'
threw an exception (exception: unsupported operand type(s) for +: 'PosixPath' and
'str')
Wrapping the env.doc2path() call in str() will coerce a Path object
to the str we expect, and have no effect in older Sphinx versions
that do return a str.
