30461	contrib.gis.geoip2 does not support pathlib.Path as GEOIP_PATH parameter, only str	Nikita Krokosh	Nikita Krokosh	"I want to pass Path instance directly as GEOIP_PATH param but currently it only allowes str instances.
As I understand, min Python version for Django 2.2 is 3.5+ so I can freely pass Path instance there.
