DOC: fix documentation for copyright and credits (GH-5706)

Adapt documentation for `copyright` and `credits` to reality. Previously, the documentation implied that all each of `copyright`, `credits`, and `license`, would print a message to call the object in order to see the full text. In reality, only `license` exhibits this behaviour, and `copyright` and `credit` print their full text either when printed, displayed, or called.
