#5939: typo in g.automorphism_group documentation, for g a graph; also partition
parameter isn't tested anywhere in the docstring

There is a typo in the docstring for the graph automorphism function:
{{{
``translation`` - if True, then output includes a a
dictionary translating from keys == vertices to entries ==
elements
of 1,2,...,n (since permutation groups can currently only act
on
positive integers).
}}}
Notice that it says "includes a a" (a appears twice).
Also, the doctests in that docstring do not test the partition parameter
at all, and it seems to me that would be a very important parameter to
illustrate, especially given that the docstring starts {{{
Returns the largest subgroup of the automorphism group of the
(di)graph whose orbit partition is finer than the partition given.
}}}
which suggests that the most important thing the reader should know is
that the automorphism_group computes something associated to a partition.
