compile(): `func_type` mode is not documented

In 2019, compile() got a new mode="func_type" used to parse the signature of a function as AST:

• commit dcfcd146f8e6fc5c2fc16a4c192a0c5f5ca8c53c
• issue gh-79947

>>> compile('() -> int', '<string>', 'func_type', flags=ast.PyCF_ONLY_AST)
FunctionType(argtypes=[], returns=Name(id='int', ctx=Load()))

>>> import ast; ast.parse('() -> int', '<string>', 'func_type')
FunctionType(argtypes=[], returns=Name(id='int', ctx=Load()))

It's tested by test_type_comments using ast.parse() function.

The 'func_type' mode is documented in ast.parse() documentation:

In addition, if mode is 'func_type', the input syntax is modified to correspond to PEP 484 “signature type comments”, e.g. (str, int) -> List[str].

But it's not documented in the compile() function documentation. Should it be documented there as well? Maybe at least by redirecting to ast.parse()?

Compara la documentación de la función compile() con la documentación existente de ast.parse() enlazada en el issue, centrándote en el modo no documentado 'func_type'. Se considera completado cuando la documentación de compile() describa este modo o redirija claramente a los lectores a la explicación de ast.parse(); revisa los PR enlazados gh-153542 y gh-153561 antes de empezar.
