[issue16629] IDLE: Calltips test fails due to int docstring change

Calltip limited by first empty line. But I agree, some reasonable hard limit (say 10 lines) should be.

Then calltip will be wrong. `int` can accept two arguments, not only one. Alternative consistent solution is to revert all changes which were convert oneline signatures to multiline (I think you won't like this ;) ).

> Unless the policy for IDLE is different, it seems the latter should be limited to 3.4.

The policy for IDLE is different.
