Adjust `pathlib.Path.move()` so that each file and directory is deleted immediately after it is copied, rather than copying everything before deleting anything. To achieve this, we rename `_copy_from()` to `_iter_copy_from()` and convert it to a generator that yields `(target, source)` pairs. The `Path.move()` method deletes each source path after it's copied.
