[docs] Bug in the Reference Data Model

[Ted Yin]

It's said that :

When it would yield a class method object, it is transformed into a bound
user-defined method object whose im_class and im_self attributes are both C.

in the Reference <http://docs.python.org/reference/datamodel.html>

And I did an EX.

>>> class C(object) :
...     @classmethod
...     def cm(cls) : print cls
...
>>> C.cm
<bound method type.cm of <class '__main__.C'>>
>>> C.cm.im_self
<class '__main__.C'>
>>> C.cm.im_class
<type 'type'>

It's not hard for me to understand the result.

But unfortunately, in the reference, it's told that im_self should be *the
same* as im_class.

And in my opinion , 'im_self' shold be C, but im_class is 'type' since C's
metaclass is type. So they're obviously *not* 'both C'.
