docs: improve venv docs (#124540)

- Move "versionchanged" notes that apply to the whole class to the
  end of the class docs
- Remove or move notes next to the method list that apply to individual
  methods.
- Mark up parameters using the appropriate syntax
- Do not capitalize "boolean"
- Shorten some text
