[doc] Make subprocess.wait doc more precise

An active loop is only used when the `timeout` parameter is used on
POSIX.

When no timeout is used, the code calls `os.waitpid` internally (which puts
the process on a sleep status). On Windows, the internal Windows API
call accepts a timeout parameter, so that is delegated to the OS.
