Summary: nit for builtin sum doc

Initial Comment:
the docstring signature for sum in bltinmodule.c
should be changed from:
    sum(sequence, start=0)
to:
    sum(sequence[, start])
to reflect the current implementation in builtin_sum.

(or else the implementation should be changed
to accept kwargs.)

While the proposed change is technically correct, I find the
original to be more informative.
