[docs] [issue16851] Hint about correct ismethod and isfunction usage

[Thomas Kluyver]

Thomas Kluyver added the comment:

I agree that the docs for inspect.ismethod() for Python 2 are wrong.

The docs say: "Return true if the object is a bound method written in Python."

However, it also returns True for an unbound method:

>>> class A:
...     def meth(self):
...         pass
... 
>>> A.meth
<unbound method A.meth>
>>> import inspect
>>> inspect.ismethod(A.meth)
True
