Update import mode documentation to not refer to __import__() anymore. (#10747)

Browse Source 
Nowadays, the prepend and append import modes use importlib.import_module() instead of __import__().

There was a phrase “which avoids having to use `__import__`”, in which I couldn’t just replace `__import__` by `importlib.import_module` because the latter is used (in insert_missing_modules()) also when using importlib mode. Therefore I removed the part from the sentence.
