Part of #95913 . Also intends to solve #98250 (which I hadn't seen when I first created this).

Initially, this started out as a PR adding the missing new enum APIs, but I pulled that out to a separate issue, # , and keeping this one focused on just the copyediting, cross-referencing and organization of the section, which ended up being fairly extensive.

In particular, this PR:

  • Describes the changes to __format__ and __str__ changes more clearly and comprehensively, per Enum.__str__ change could be improved in What's New #98250 (and superseding gh-98250: Improve documentation about change to Enum.__format__ #98261 )
  • Converts the code literals in the exiting enum sections to actual Sphinx cross-references to the various items discussed (a few of which didn't resolved, which highlighted that several new APIs mentioned here weren't actually documented)
  • Rewrites the section's phrasing to be consistent with the others, namely past-tense prose
  • More clearly and descriptively explains several of the new features whose items were potentially confusing or incomplete
  • Combines closely related elements which had distinct bullets, sometimes widely separated, to avoid duplication and be easier to follow
  • Applies other Sphinx syntax and semantics, and fixes other minor textual issues

Closes #98250

I've added some additional explanations and clarifications to further address the issue brought up in issue #98250 and incorporate the spirit of the change in PR #98261 , which I missed seeing before I submitted this PR.

BTW @ethanfurman , I hate to bug you but since we're on a tight timetable for the 3.11 release, do you think you could share your thoughts on #98298 ? I can take care of adding the mentioned docs if needed (with your review), but I wanted to get your take first as the resident Enum expert and the author of most of the changes being documented. Thanks!
