[docs] [issue12359] tutorial: Module search path description is incorrect

New submission from anatoly techtonik <techtonik at gmail.com>:

http://docs.python.org/tutorial/modules.html#the-module-search-path

Module search path order description is misleading. When a module named spam is imported, the interpreter searches for a file named spam.py in the directory of the script with import instruction, not in the current directory.
