Closes #10031: overhaul the "imports" section of the programming FAQ.

Remove the advice to never use relative imports; it is a leftover from 2.x implicit relative imports.
Remove the advice to locally import modules in __init__, it is a strange practice.
Remove the advice to use "from ... import *" with some modules.
