[3.12] gh-60712: Include the "object" type in the lists of documented types (GH-103036) (GH-126198) gh-60712: Include the "object" type in the lists of documented types (GH-103036) * add test for the predefined object's attributes * Include the "object" type in the lists of documented types * remove 'or' from augment tuple * ๐๐ค Added by blurb_it. * Add cross-reference to news * Fix format for the function parameter * Add space * add reference for the 'object' * add reference for NotImplemented * Change ref:`string <textseq>` as class:`str` * remove hyphen from `newly-created` * Update Doc/reference/datamodel.rst 'dictionaries' to 'dict' * Update predefined attribute types in testPredefinedAttrs * Change `universal type` as `top type` * Don't mention about the top type * Update the description of richcmpfuncs * Update Doc/library/stdtypes.rst * Revert: Hierarchy Section in Data Model Documentation * Revert to original explanations of __new__ and __init__ methods in datamodel.rst for improved clarity. * Update Doc/reference/datamodel.rst * Remove blank line * Use ref:`str <textseq>` instead of :class:`str * Revert changes the description of Other Built-in Types in stdtypes.rst * Update Doc/reference/datamodel.rst --------- (cherry picked from commit 4f826214b30ad50365f45bf07e4a02f34f897ab5) Co-authored-by: Furkan Onder <[email protected]> Co-authored-by: blurb-it[bot] <43283697+blurb-it[bot]@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: C.A.M.
