[New-bugs-announce] [issue40319] dict.update() return the updated dict instead of None

[AL3X_69]

New submission from AL3X_69 <alex69.minecraft at gmail.com>:

When a dict is updated with update(), instead of return None, it will return the updated dict.

example: 

>>> a = {"test": 1}
>>> b = {"type": 2}
>>> c = a.update(b)
>>> print(c)
{"test": 1, "type": 1}
