bpo-45619: documentation of execution model: clarify and update binding summary (#29232)
This does two changes that are quite related.

0. it add that variable binding can occur in pattern matching, an update of 3.10
which seems to have been omitted from the list of bindings
1. Given how long the sentence already was, with even subcases in the middle of
the sentence, the commit breaks the sentence into an actual list.

bpo-45463: Clarify that global statements allows multiple names (GH-28851)
The global statement allows specifying a list of identifiers
(https://docs.python.org/3/reference/simple_stmts.html#the-global-statement).

The "Execution model" chapter described the global statement as if it
only allowed one single name. Pluralize "name" in the appropriate places.
