[issue12160] codecs doc: what is StreamCodec?

[STINNER Victor]

New submission from STINNER Victor <victor.stinner at haypocalc.com>:

Codec.encode() and Codec.decode() refer to StreamCode, but I cannot find this class in the doc nor in the code.

I suppose that it should be replaced by IncrementalEncoder and IncrementalDecoder. If I'm correct, see attached patch.
