[docs] dictionary unpacking `fn(**kwargs)` should accept `SupportsKeysAndGetitem` and not just `Mapping`

Revisa el PR vinculado gh-157771 junto con la documentación sobre las representaciones de Dictionary y mapping citada en el issue. Verifica la redacción según el comportamiento en tiempo de ejecución descrito de keys() y getitem; se considera terminado cuando la documentación ya no exige heredar de Mapping y sigue siendo coherente con la construcción de dict.

Brief

The docs say that for dict unpacking as in fn(**kwargs), kwargs must "implement the methods specified in the collections.abc.Mapping", when in reality only keys() and __getitem__ as in the dict constructor are required.

Documentation

The current documentation states that:

[6.2.5.4. Dictionary displays]
Instead of a key-value pair, a dict item may be an expression prefixed by a double asterisk **. This denotes dictionary unpacking. At runtime, the expression must evaluate to a mapping;

which points to

[mapping]
A container object that supports arbitrary key lookups and implements the methods specified in the collections.abc.Mapping or collections.abc.MutableMapping abstract base classes.

However, at runtime, fn(**kwargs) works whenever kwargs supports both a keys() -> Iterable[str] and __getitem__(self, key: str) -> object method:

class SupportsKeysAndGetitem:
    _dict = {"foo": 0, "bar": object()}

    def keys(self):
        return iter(self._dict)

    def __getitem__(self, key: str, /) -> object:
        return self._dict[key]

def expects_kwargs(**kwargs: int) -> None:
    print(kwargs)

d = SupportsKeysAndGetitem()
expects_kwargs(**d)  # works at runtime

Moreover, the relevant methods that Cpython executes under the hood explicitly supports this looser protocol:

class dict
If a positional argument is given and it defines a keys() method, a dictionary is created by calling getitem() on the argument with each returned key from the method.

and

int PyDict_Merge(PyObject *a, PyObject *b, int override)
Part of the Stable ABI. Thread safety: Safe for concurrent use on the same object.
Iterate over mapping object b adding key-value pairs to dictionary a. b may be a dictionary, or any object supporting PyMapping_Keys() and PyObject_GetItem().

Proposal

Update the documentation of dict-unpacking to reflect the actual runtime behavior in sync with how dict construction works, only requiring keys() and __getitem__ rather than inheritance from the non-protocol class collections.abc.Mapping.

Rationale

• fn(**kwargs) only requiring keys() and __getitem__ is how it works at runtime, and has since ages
• Supporting a protocol is nicer than just supporting a non-protocol ABC like collections.abc.Mapping due to duck-typing (a similar conclusion was reached in the discussion of #116938)
• There are real world use-cases like fn(**dataframe) as for example a pandas DataFrame supports keys() (yields the list of columns) and __getitem__ (look up column by name), but does not inherit from the collections.abc.Mapping class, nor implements all of its methods.
