[3.12] Improve documentation for typing.get_type_hints (GH-119928) (#119944)

- Explicit list of what it does that is different from
  "just return __annotations__"
- Remove reference to PEP 563; adding the future import doesn't
  do anything to type aliases, and in general it will never make
  get_type_hints() less likely to fail.
- Remove example, as the Annotated docs already have a similar
  example, and it's unbalanced to have one example about this
  one edge case but not about other behaviors of the function.

(cherry picked from commit aa9fe98e0649f0a151942914ef4e2810ca6126c2)
