replace pydoc with pydoc3 #100583

Documentation

The 3.11 docs and 3.10 docs state that pydoc can be invoked as a script, giving as examplepydoc sys. However, there's no such command after installing those versions on macOS: there's only pydoc3.

BTW, I also have Python 3.8 installed with Anaconda and it creates symlinks pydoc and pydoc3 both pointing to pydoc3.8.

It thus seems either the documentation should be updated to replace pydoc with pydoc3 or the 3.10 and 3.11 installers should create a pydoc symlink.
