Documentation problem

pandas.DataFrame.to_html parameter border is missing description for the behaviour when the border=0 or border=False is passed.

This means that documenation should be extended, as if the border=0 or Falseis passed, the border is not present in the output <table> tag. Documentation indicates that border will always be included but this is lie. This behaviour was introduced in the pandas 1.5.0: https://pandas.pydata.org/pandas-docs/version/1.5.0/whatsnew/v1.5.0.html#:~:text=to_html()%20now%20excludes%20the%20border%20attribute%20from%20%3Ctable%3E%20elements%20when%20border%20keyword%20is%20set%20to%20False.

Suggested fix for documentation

Improved description for the border parameter:

border: int or bool When an integer value is provided, it sets the border attribute in the opening

tag, specifying the thickness of the border. If False or 0 (zero) is passed, the border attribute will not be present in the <table>tag.

The default value for this parameter is governed by pd.options.display.html.border.
