Summary: Typo in 3.16 copy_reg doc

Initial Comment:
On the page at <http://www.python.org/doc/current/lib/module-copyreg.html> in the second 
half about the pickle function, it says, in part:

> pickle(type, function[, constructor]) 
>     Declares that function should be used as a ``reduction'' function for objects of type type;
>     type should not a class object. function should return either a string or a tuple containing 
>     two or three elements. 

The part that says "type should not a class object" seems wrong. I think it should probably be 
"type should be a class object".
