[docs] [issue26608] RLock undocumented behavior in case of multiple acquire

Mateusz report at bugs.python.org

New submission from Mateusz:

The number of acquisitions must be the same as the number of releases or else lock will not be released for other threads leading to deadlock. This is not mentioned in documentation. 

First acquisition returns boolean and further acquisitions return 1. This is also not mentioned in documentation.
