Undocumented Cmd method print_topics

Documentation

When exploring the Cmd Python library, I realized that there is no documentation for print_topics method.

I only realized the missing documentation because I noticed that print_topics method has an unused parameter called cmdlen, and I couldn't figure out if it is actually useful for something.
I could also notice that on typeshed it is typed as Any, even though it seems to be only used as an int.

Extra doubts:

Maybe print_topics should be renamed to _print_topics or we should document how to use it properly?
Also, is that cmdlen parameter really needed?

I am willing to contribute with that, but I don't know which type of issue I should open to report an unused param.

Comienza con la definición de print_topics en Lib/cmd.py#L346, la documentación de Cmd y su declaración de typeshed. Revisa el PR vinculado gh-134539 y las preguntas sin resolver sobre cmdlen, la nomenclatura y el tipado antes de decidir el comportamiento público previsto. Se considera terminado cuando el comportamiento acordado y el uso de los parámetros estén documentados, y la anotación de typeshed se haya abordado si es necesario.
