Description: socket.SocketType is a class, but the documentation marks it with the .. data:: directive, so :class: cross-references to it cannot resolve against a py:class target. This switches the entry to .. class::. It also corrects the description: SocketType is re-exported from _socket as an alias of _socket.socket, the base class of socket.socket, so isinstance(socket(...), SocketType) is true while type(socket(...)) is socket.socket itself. The current wording, "the same as type(socket(...))", is the misleading text reported in gh-88427. This overlaps with #93288, which corrects the same sentence but keeps .. data::. This PR combines that wording fix with the role fix. Refs: gh-89554, gh-88427. Documentation-only change, so no Misc/NEWS entry (skip news). This file is not covered by CODEOWNERS, so cc @vstinner, who reviews most socket changes.
