Summary: Update documentation for __builtins__

Initial Comment:
If applied, this patch would explicitly tell users that
they should be using __builtin__ to override built-in
functions, rather than __builtins__. The patch would
also add documentation clairifying that __builtins__ is
a module when in __main__ and a dictionary anywhere else.

This diff was made against dist/src/Doc/ref/ref4.tex,
version 1.38 from CVS.
