Make wxDC::Blit() and StretchBlit() documentation more useful.

Enumerating the list of parameters in the method description is not especially
helpful, don't do it. Explain the functions relationship instead.

Also don't say that StretchBlit() is not implemented in wxGTK because it does
work there (using the generic implementation using wxDC scale).
