PyControl docstrings refer to PyScrolledWindow

I think there's a typo in the PyControl documentation -
http://www.wxpython.org/docs/api/wx.PyControl-class.html

In each of the base_ methods, the docstring says "Please use
PyScrolledWindow.MethodName instead". I think the code was probably copied
from the PyScrolledWindow class, and should probably be changed to say
PyControl.MethodName instead.

In fact, it looks like PyScrolledWindow isn't even in the namespace, so
perhaps these base_ methods can be removed altogether.

If indeed these methods and docstrings are correct, would someone please
briefly explain or point me to an explanation of the discrepancy?

Regards,
Jason

Yep. A copy-paste error. Thanks.
