Closes #147965.

The multiprocessing.Queue documentation states it implements all methods of queue.Queue except for task_done() and join(). Since queue.Queue.shutdown() was added in Python 3.13, and multiprocessing.Queue does not implement it either, this PR adds shutdown() to the list of excluded methods.

Changes

  • Doc/library/multiprocessing.rst: Add shutdown() to the list of queue.Queue methods not implemented by multiprocessing.Queue
  • Issue: Indicate that multiprocessing.Queue does not implement shutdown() #147965

@aisk Thanks for the pointer, I used AI to assist me with writing the commit, but I personally verify it the shutdown is not found by python3 -c "import multiprocessing; q = multiprocessing.Queue(); q.shutdown()"
