This PR fixes an out-of-date note attached to
intconversions instdtypes.rst.The "may round or truncate as in C" language dates from almost 30 years ago, when conversion from a Python
floatto a Pythonintinvolved at C level a(long)cast applied to a Cdoublevalue. Prior to standard C, presumably the precise behaviour of that cast couldn't be relied upon. But since C89 standardised this behaviour and we can reasonably rely on all current C compilers adhering to that or later standards, the note is out of date. (Moreover, the current code for converting a Python 3intto a C double is very different.)Related discuss.python.org thread: https://discuss.python.org/t/built-in-types-int-round-or-truncate-please-elaborate/24840
