A [https://stackoverflow.com/q/79291523/67579 question at StackOverflow]
asks where it is documented that `self.kwargs` is set, and although it is
mentioned for example in the [https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/5.1/topics
/class-based-views/generic-display/#dynamic-filtering "Built-in class-
based generic views"] section, it does not appear in the documentation of
the [https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/5.1/ref/class-based-
views/base/#django.views.generic.base.View.setup Base views] nor in the
documentation for the `.setup(..)` method.

Perhaps the documentation regarding base views should explain what setup
is doing?
