[docs] [issue9499] Python C/API Execution namespace undocumented. (patch included)

[Campbell Barton]

New submission from Campbell Barton <ideasman42 at gmail.com>:

Some parts of the python api expect __main__ module dictionary to be the namespace when executing a script, this is true when running a python script from the python binary but NOT true when running a compiled script from the C/API which can lead to bugs which are not easy to solve unless the C/API author knows this.
