New submission from Zachary Ware:

(Brought up by 'Tronster' on docs@)

https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/controlflow.html#function-annotations

In light of the PEP 484 and its clear intentions for function annotations, the 
tutorial section on function annotations is out of date.  It should be updated 
to be clear that function annotations are intended for type hints, and that 
other uses are no longer encouraged.  The example should also use some built-in 
types in a manner consistent with PEP 484.
