Clearly document the supported seek() operations:
- Rewind to the start of the stream
- Restore a previous stream position (given by tell())
- Fast-forward to the end of the stream
(Spawning subprocesses does not require the event loop to run in the main thread -- only signal handling does.)

PEP 683 (immortal objects) revealed some ways in which the Python documentation has been unnecessarily coupled to the implementation details of reference counts. In the end users should focus on reference ownership, including taking references and releasing them, rather than on how many reference counts an object has.
This change updates the documentation to reflect that perspective.
Improve cross-references in `runpy` docs (GH-107673)
- Add links to `__main__` and `sys.path` where appropriate
- Ensure each paragraph never has more than one link to the same thing, to avoid visual clutter from too many links
