gh-74929: locals() documentation update for PEP 667 - #118265
Conversation

Proposed documentation wording taken from the withdrawn PEP 558 (which had switched to the Python level semantics proposed in PEP 667 prior to its withdrawal).

I plan to eventually replace the latter two sentences here with something like "For details, refer to the 'Python 3.13 porting guide'" (with a link to the relevant part of the 3.13 What's New document). That will be in a later PR that adds an initial version of the What's New update for PEP 667, though.
