[docs] [issue24243] behavior for finding an empty string is inconsistent with documentation

[R. David Murray]

R. David Murray added the comment:

I'm not Raymond, but he is correct.  This is an example of "taking advantage of the corner cases", and is something Python does a lot of, especially around strings and slices.  The current behavior was carefully considered and has useful properties.
