Update the descriptions for transition_post_status() and the {$new_stats}_{$post->post_type} hook with more information about the expected behavior of transitioning post statuses.

Browse Source 
In some cases, the values of `$old_status` and `$new_status` may be the same thing before and after a post status is "transitioned". An example of this would be the scenario where a published post is being updated: the status before and after the update both equal 'publish'.

Further, the documentation clarifies that if the intent is to only execute code when initially transitioningto a post status from something else, the 'transition_post_status' hook should be used instead of one of the dynamic hooks to avoid confusion.

Props Idealien for the initial patch.
Fixes #31099.

* Transition the post status of a post.

* Calls hooks to transition post status.
* When a post is saved, the post status is "transitioned" from one status to another,
* though this does not always mean the status has actually changed before and after
* the save.
*
* The first is 'transition_post_status' with new status, old status, and post data.
*
* The next action called is 'OLDSTATUS_to_NEWSTATUS' the 'NEWSTATUS' is the
* $new_status parameter and the 'OLDSTATUS' is $old_status parameter; it has the
* post data.
*
* The final action is named 'NEWSTATUS_POSTTYPE', 'NEWSTATUS' is from the $new_status
* parameter and POSTTYPE is post_type post data.
* For instance: When publishing a post for the first time, the post status may transition
* from 'draft' – or some other status – to 'publish'. However, if a post is already
* published and is simply being updated, the "old" and "new" statuses may both be 'publish'
* before and after the transition.

* refer to the new post status and post type, respectively.

* Please note: When this action is hooked using a particular post status (like
* 'publish', as `publish_{$post->post_type}`), it will fire both when a post is
* first transitioned to that status from something else, as well as upon
* subsequent post updates (old and new status are both the same).
