[docs] [issue16072] fix documentation of string.replace() signature

[Andrew Svetlov]

Andrew Svetlov added the comment:

No it shoudn't.
It works exactly as described:
Return a copy of string *str* with all occurrences of substring *old* replaced by *new*. If the optional argument *maxreplace* is given, the first *maxreplace* occurrences are replaced.
*str* is updated string and it is definitelly required.
