the widget docs to reflect the current class hierarchy as suggested in the
description.

{{{#!CommitTicketReference repository=""
revision="e1feeee45ea8bcd4325554c9b94fcd75fcd8dbdc"
Fixed #37194 -- Removed redundant choice widget documentation.

The removed section primarily provided usage examples and recommendations
rather than documenting the widget API. The interaction between a choice
field and its widget is already documented in the Select.choices
reference.
