[issue21143] Copy-paste error in documentation of __builtin__.max

[Jyrki Pulliainen]

New submission from Jyrki Pulliainen:

Looks like the documentation of the __builtin__.max() got copied over from the 
__builtin__.min.

Instead of "the smallest of the positional arguments" it should say "the 
largest of the positional arguments".

This was introduced in 3.4. Patch attached.

Thanks to chiman@#python.fi for spotting this!
