[docs] [issue25432] isinstance documentation doesn't explain what happens when type is tuple

[Michael Crouch]

New submission from Michael Crouch:

In the section on isinstance() in the Python Standard Library documentation Chapter 2 (https://docs.python.org/3.6/library/functions.html#isinstance) , it says that classinfo "may be a tuple of type objects", but it doesn't explain what the semantics are in that case (e.g., that it will return true iff it is an instance of any of the types in the tuple).
