[issue24406] "Built-in Types" doc doesn't explain dict comparison.

[Terry J. Reedy]

Terry J. Reedy added the comment:

The 3.4 sequence section also has this: "Sequences of the same type also 
support comparisons. In particular, tuples and lists are compared 
lexicographically by comparing corresponding elements."  I agree that dicts 
should have a similar sentence or two. Neither the sequence or (frozen)set 
sections reference the language manual, so I will leave that out.
