Docstring Fix for PILToTensor in Torchvision (#9254)

Summary:

#9221 identifies a confusion around image shape conventions for ToTensor and PILToTensor classes. The docstring has the following statement:
Converts a PIL Image (H x W x C) to a Tensor of shape (C x H x W).
This is confusing since PIL Image shape is not (H x W x C) but rather PIL Images expose their size as (W, H) via the size attribute, not as a shape tuple.
Proposed Docstring Update
Convert a PIL Image with H height, W width, and C channels to a Tensor of shape (C x H x W).
