New-style and old-style class expalanation in the datamodel section has minor grammatical errors and one minor ambiguity that could be improved.

http://docs.python.org/2/reference/datamodel.html#new-style-and-classic-classes

* "independently of" should always be "indepenent of"
* single hyphens (-) should be double-hyphens (--) for an m-dash
* "flavour" should be "flavor" (used 100x more often in docs.python)
* "only the symantics of..." is ambiguous. can't tell if 'only' modifies 'symantics' or 'new-style classes'?
