Documentation

The docstring here reads:
"The last (additional) element is the time zone offset in seconds, except if
the timezone was specified as -0000. In that case the last element is
None. This indicates a UTC timestamp that explicitlydeclaims knowledge of
the source timezone, as opposed to a +0000 timestamp that indicates the
source timezone really was UTC."

This sounds wrong and is confusing. I believe the intention was to say "disclaims".

I see this in the latest version and also, at least, in 3.8.6. (Plus future.backports.email._parseaddr._parsedate_tz)
