[3.12] bpo-37755: Use configured output in pydoc instead of pager (GH-15105) (GH-120262) If the Helper() class was initialized with an output, the topics, keywords and symbols help still use the pager instead of the output. Change the behavior so the output is used if available while keeping the previous behavior if no output was configured.
