Since `title()` mentions its own short-comings, it should also mention the library function which does not possess them.

People keep popping up reporting these as typos in the docs despite
being described as typos in the surrounding text. Hopefully a comment
on the line itself makes it more obvious?
Arguably some of the typo examples are not using the "right" typo as the
"assret" one in particular is now detected by default due to how common
it was in actual code. But I don't want to to typo chasing by changing
these examples to be other not yet auto-detected typos as they still
illustrate the point well enough.

The second parameter (named `func`) has been present since the `locale`
module was introduced in eef1d4e8b1, but has never been documented.
This commit updates the documentation for `locale.atof` to clarify the
behavior of the function and how the `func` parameter is used.

While floor/ceil 's documentation are very precise, `truncate` was not explained. I actually had to search online to understand the difference between `truncate` and `floor` (admittedly, once I remembered that numbers are signed, and that floating numbers actually uses a bit for negation symbol instead of two complement, it became obvious)
