Documentation mentions Text.fromString as if it were still in core, but it was actually moved to `evancz/elm-graphics` #813

In http://package.elm-lang.org/packages/elm-lang/core/5.0.0/Basics#toString we read:

When you view the resulting string with Text.fromString it should look just like the value it came from.

That reads as if the user should know or be easily able to find what Text.fromString is while browsing the core documentation. It would make sense if Text.fromString were part of core. It was in the past, but now lives elsewhere: http://package.elm-lang.org/packages/evancz/elm-graphics/1.0.1/Text#fromString

Either the documentation of Basics.toString should be written without referencing Text.fromString, or it should point out where Text.fromString can be found (outside core).
