[docs] [issue10379] locale.format() input regression

[Eric V. Smith]

Eric V. Smith added the comment:

Barry meant that the upstream program that triggered this error has been changed to call format_string() instead of format(). The bug still exists in format().

My suggestion is to have format() be an alias for format_string(). Deprecating format() is an optional step, but may not be worth the hassle.
