Continues #110383
Originally reported in https://mail.python.org/archives/list/docs@python.org/thread/4AYZNSW3RB3DNT5C7JEE6RCESBWIKZTD/

Remove recommendations for migrating away from os.popen2, os.popen3, os.popen4, and popen2, which haven't existed since Python 2.7.

Leaves the recommendations for os.popen, which does still exist.


📚 Documentation preview 📚: https://cpython-previews--112783.org.readthedocs.build/

These functions were removed in Python 3.

Would this section also need to be reviewed? https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/main/Doc/faq/library.rst?plain=1#L538-L582

Upon review, that section was commented out in 2009 (9e4ff75)
If it hasn't been needed since then, we should probably go ahead and remove it.

I've gone ahead and removed it in f84d6d4
