#14863: Update the documentation of os.fdopen()

There's no bufsize argument anymore, and os.fdopen() is only a very
thin wrapper around open() anymore. Change the documentation to
reflect that.

These functions create new :term:`file objects <file object>`. (See also :func:`open`.)
.. function:: fdopen(fd[, mode[, bufsize]])
.. function:: fdopen(fd, *args, **kwargs)
.. index:: single: I/O control; buffering
Return an open file object connected to the file descriptor *fd*. The *mode*
and *bufsize* arguments have the same meaning as the corresponding arguments to
the built-in :func:`open` function.
When specified, the *mode* argument must start with one of the letters
``'r'``, ``'w'``, or ``'a'``, otherwise a :exc:`ValueError` is raised.
On Unix, when the *mode* argument starts with ``'a'``, the *O_APPEND* flag is
set on the file descriptor (which the :c:func:`fdopen` implementation already
does on most platforms).
Availability: Unix, Windows.
Return an open file object connected to the file descriptor *fd*.
This is an alias of :func:`open` and accepts the same arguments.
The only difference is that the first argument of :func:`fdopen`
must always be an integer.
