[issue29940] Add follow_wrapped=True option to help()

[Tal Einat]

Tal Einat <taleinat+python at gmail.com> added the comment:

The issue was not that __doc__ was not copied, but that help() would use the class's __doc__ when called on an instance, even if that instance had its own __doc__.

See the StackOverflow question for another example.

You will not see this issue with the latest master branch, because it has already been resolved by PR GH-19479, as described and discussed in issue40257.

Closing as "out of date".
