R David Murray 276a0a578e #20135: FAQ entry for list mutation.
This is a perennial question and something someone opens a ticket for probably
every other month or so, so I'm surprised we didn't already have a FAQ entry
for it.

The original patch was written by M. Votz, refined first by Ezio Melotti and
further refined by me.

R David Murray ff22984ff1 Tweak programming faq examples so that it (mostly) passes doctest.
Back port of 0113247f894b from 3.3.

The exceptions are the import related questions at the end, which
need to be rewritten anyway, and a math example that doesn't
exist in the 3.3+ docs that I didn't bother trying to fix.
