Research direction
Reproduce the sample using pathlib.Path with MySQLdb.connect, then start at MySQLdb/init.py and connections.py, as shown in the traceback. Check how read_default_file reaches the connection layer and verify that Path input no longer raises the reported TypeError while existing string input still works.

Description
Sample code:
from pathlib import Path
import MySQLdb
conn = MySQLdb.connect(
read_default_file=Path(__file__).with_name('mylogin.cnf').resolve())
Error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<input>", line 2, in <module>
File "/home/test/projects/venv/lib/python3.6/site-packages/MySQLdb/__init__.py", line 85, in Connect
return Connection(*args, **kwargs)
File "/home/test/projects/venv/lib/python3.6/site-packages/MySQLdb/connections.py", line 208, in __init__
super(Connection, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs2)
TypeError: connect() argument 12 must be str, not PosixPath
