bpo-45680: Clarify documentation on ``GenericAlias`` objects (GH-29335)
The documentation on ``GenericAlias`` objects implies at multiple points that only container classes can define ``__class_getitem__``. This is misleading. This PR proposes a rewrite of the documentation to clarify that non-container classes can define ``__class_getitem__``, and to clarify what it means when a non-container class is parameterized. See also: initial discussion of issues with this piece of documentation in GH-29308, and previous BPO issue [42280](https://bugs.python.org/issue42280). Also improved references in glossary and typing docs. Fixed some links.
