This PR updates the docs after #45222 and resolves my comments from #47297 (comment)

Notice PartialQuickSort(::Integer) is about to be deprecated in #47297, and thus the documentation is removed as well.

Cc: @LilithHafner

Also relates to #47304

@LilithHafner Thanks for your work on sorting!

O(n²) is worst-case complexity, but it gets vanishingly unlikely

I know that, not worried, still might introsort variant be better; it avoids that? Might it be faster (with or without randomization)?

@LilithHafner Can you please check the wording because it would be nice to merge this docs (and backport it) before 1.9 is out.

@LilithHafner Thank you for the comments. I've resolved them + I've removed comments about v1.9 (7a66f76) as it is already noted in compat.

Therefore, it seems ready from my side.

I fixed a couple of typos and tweaked some wording. If it still looks good to you, I'm ready to merge.

map(x->issorted(x[k2]), (s, ps, qs)) # => (true, false, true)
s[1:k] == ps[1:k] # => true
s[k2] == qs[k2] # => true

@LilithHafner Thanks for the changes. I've removed *appear* to be stable you reverted because it seems to me to be slightly misleading, since the default algorithm is always stable now (unless some library changes this behavior). Otherwise, it can be merged.

Agreed.
