[issue1123716] descrintro describes __new__ and __init__ behavior wrong

[Facundo Batista]

Facundo Batista added the comment:

Documentation had several updates in these 2+ years.

Now it says:

"""
If __new__() returns an instance of cls, then the new instance’s
__init__() method will be invoked like __init__(self[, ...]), where self
is the new instance and the remaining arguments are the same as were
passed to __new__().

If __new__() does not return an instance of cls, then the new instance’s
__init__() method will not be invoked.
"""

, which is clearer.

Thanks!
