Comment:
This small patch makes the error messages from
issubclass() and isinstance() more descriptive.
It also contains a couple of tiny fixes to other
docstrings in bltinmodule.c.

Ping, are you sure that adding the function name to the error message
doesn't break the support for ExtensionClasses? abstract_issubclass() is
also called from isinstance().

I do agree with your docstring grammar changes! I've always thought that
the correct phrasing is "Return this-or-that", not "Return*s* this-or-that".
