[3.12] gh-115684: Clarify datetime replace documentation (GH-116519)

* Clarify datetime `replace` documentation

In GH-115684, HopedForLuck noted that `datetime.date.replace()`
documentation was confusing because it looked like it would be changing
immutable objects.

This documentation change specifies that the `replace()` methods in
`datetime` return new objects. This uses similar wording to the
documentation for `datetime.combine()`, which specifies that a new
datetime is returned. This is also similar to wording for
`string.replace()`, except `string.replace()` emphasizes that a "copy"
is returned.

Resolves GH-115684.

* Include reviewer comments

Thanks Privat33r-dev for the comments!
