bpo-41376: Fix the documentation of
site.getusersitepackages()
(pyt…
…honGH-21602) `site.getusersitepackages()` returns the location of the user-specific site-packages directory even when the user-specific site-packages is disabled. ``` $ python -s -m site sys.path = [ '/home/user/conda/lib/python37.zip', '/home/user/conda/lib/python3.7', '/home/user/conda/lib/python3.7/lib-dynload', '/home/user/conda/lib/python3.7/site-packages', ] USER_BASE: '/home/user/.local' (exists) USER_SITE: '/home/user/.local/lib/python3.7/site-packages' (doesn't exist) ENABLE_USER_SITE: False ``` It was not practical to prevent the function from returning None if user-specific site-packages are disabled, since there are other uses of the function which are relying on this behaviour (e.g. `python -m site`).
