python: Fix erroneous doc about gdb.objfiles()
The code implementing gdb.objfiles() returns a list of objfiles for the
current program space (the program space of the selected inferior). The
documentation for the gdb.objfiles() Python method, however, states:
Return a sequence of all the objfiles current known to GDB.
That sounds wrong to me. I tried to phrase to be more precise.
gdb/doc/ChangeLog:
* python.texi (Objfiles In Python): Update gdb.objfiles() doc.
