bpo-42388: Fix subprocess.check_output input=None when text=True (GH-23467)

When the modern text= spelling of the universal_newlines= parameter was added
for Python 3.7, check_output's special case around input=None was overlooked.
So it behaved differently with universal_newlines=True vs text=True.  This
reconciles the behavior to be consistent and adds a test to guarantee it.

Also clarifies the existing check_output documentation.
