[docs] [issue33961] Inconsistency in exceptions for dataclasses.dataclass documentation

Chris Cogdon report at bugs.python.org

New submission from Chris Cogdon <chris at cogdon.org>:

The documentation for dataclasses.dataclass includes this text:

"If any of the added methods already exist on the class, a TypeError will be raised."

However, the documentation for various options has ONE case of TypeError, some cases of ValueError and other cases of "does nothing".

I'll attempt a fix and create a PR for this.
