Rewritten Multiprocessing Header

Please replace the header of the first article of the multiprocessing module documentation with the following text: multiprocessing <https://docs.python.org/3/library/multiprocessing.html#module-multiprocessin...> is a package allowing the programmer to use multiple processors. By offering both local and remote concurrency and subprocesses instead of threads, it effectively side-steps the Global Interpreter Lock <https://docs.python.org/3/glossary.html#term-global-interpreter-lock> by using. It runs on both Unix and Windows. While the module spawns processes using an API resembling the threading <https://docs.python.org/3/library/threading.html#module-threading> module, it also introduces new APIs, chiefly the Pool <https://docs.python.org/3/library/multiprocessing.html#multiprocessing.pool....> object, which enables convenient parallel function execution across multiple input values by distributing input data across processes. The following example demonstrates the common practice of defining functions to be imported by multiple processes. This basic example of data parallelism using Pool <https://docs.python.org/3/library/multiprocessing.html#multiprocessing.pool....>,
