Discourage alternate strings for 'none' linestyle
Inspired by but independent of the discussion around the representation of linestyles #29304. For other linestyles we have a short visual representation (e.g. "--") and a name (dashed "dashed"). No linestyle currently has four accepted writings "", " ", "none", "None". This PR recommends only to use "" (visual representation) and "none" (named representation). It discourages " " and "None". This should guide users towards more canonical usage. We may later decide whether to deprecate the alternatives. Note also, that we have not used the alternatives in examples.
