Why move unreachable is better than reachable in GC #136693

Documentation

After reading the source code in gc.c and the garbage collector documentation in garbage_collector.md, I wondered why most objects turned out to be reachable.
I found an old thread on the Python-Dev mailing list, and I think it would be useful to add a link to it in the documentation and source code.
