CLN: remove Index.__inv__ , add Index.__invert__

 - Fixed ``DataFrame[np.nan]`` when columns are non-unique (:issue:`21428`)
 - Bug when indexing :class:`DatetimeIndex` with nanosecond resolution dates and timezones (:issue:`11679`)
 - Bug where indexing with a Numpy array containing negative values would mutate the indexer (:issue:`21867`)
+- Method :meth:`Index.__inv__` was suppressed, as it provided the same functionality as :meth:`Index.__neg__` rather than what its name suggested; :meth:`Index.__invert__` was added instead, and the ``~`` operator now works (analogously as for :class:`Series`) (:issue:`21688`)
