Documentation missing for `importlib.metadata.distributions()`

Documentation

importlib.metadata.distributions() is not listed in the documentation despite being in __all__ and referred to in the doc strings for several other module items such as DistributionFinder.Context.

It looks like DistributionFinder and DistributionFinder.Context are also not documented. I'm working on a patch to add docs for those and distributions().

Originally brought up by @Julian on the PyPA discord.

cc @jaraco, I want to double check these are not intentionally excluded from docs.

Oh! I guess we can merge them together. I'll work with @ashm-dev on that.
