bpo-23882: Doc: Clarify unittest discovery document (GH-21560)

Browse source 
Unittest discovery support namespace package as start
directory. But it doesn't find namespace package in
the start directory automatically.

Otherwise, unittest discovery search into unexpected
directories like `vendor/` or `node_modules/`.
(cherry picked from commit 5a4aa4c03e)
