[issue11639] Documentation for *Config functions in logging module should be in logging.config

[Santoso Wijaya]

New submission from Santoso Wijaya <santoso.wijaya at gmail.com>:

For example, the function `fileConfig` is listed in the documentation [1] as `logging.fileConfig`. This was a surprise for me when trying it gave me an AttributeError. Only after reading the source code that I found out this function is defined in the `logging.config` module, and must be referenced as such.

[1] http://docs.python.org/library/logging.html#logging.fileConfig
