Research direction
Locate the implementation of file_utils.rmtree and compare it with the linked Python 3.6.15 and 3.13.2 shutil versions, focusing on the post-3.7 implementation. Done means the local function has been updated to use the newer version's behavior; no test file is mentioned in the issue.
