[docs] [issue24314] irrelevant cross-link in documentation of user-defined functions

[July Tikhonov]

New submission from July Tikhonov:

https://docs.python.org/3/reference/datamodel.html#the-standard-type-hierarchy

There is a table of "special attributes" of user-defined functions. The __name__ attribute name is a link, but it leads to something quite irrelevant: the description of __name__ attribute of imported modules.

In Doc/reference/datamodel.rst, there is nothing special about __name__ attribute, so it looks like some random spasm of Sphinx creating links here and there. My knowledge of rst is not sufficient to suppress it.
