Python3/en: multiple inheritance (#2217)

* Add __name__ check to make testing easier

* Update say to call print. Add more usage examples

* Move Modules section before Classes

Makes more sense for when explaining inheritance

* Add multiple inheritance example

* Add examples for multiple inheritance

* Add instance check examples

* Fix multiple inheritance example

* Add note on the __name__ variable
