[docs] [issue8810] TZ offset description is unclear in docs

[Sean Reifschneider]

Sean Reifschneider <jafo at tummy.com> added the comment:

In this case, the docs.python.org link you point to seems to be correct, saying that it returns a timedelta.  It is the docstring that says it's minutes east of UTC.

I've attached a patch which changes this wording to:

timedelta() showing offset from UTC, with negative for West of UTC
