[Doc-SIG] dict.update docstring

I've been looking at the docstrings of the built-in types, and I found the docstring for dict.update() really hard to understand. | update(...) | D.update(E, **F) -> None. Update D from E and F: for k in E: D[k] = E[k] | (if E has keys else: for (k, v) in E: D[k] = v) then: for k in F: D[k] = F
