Continue fallback when `inspect.signature().return_annotation` returns `Parameter.empty`, allowing return annotations to be parsed from C-buildins docstrings. Remove misleading `UserWarning: Error handling return annotation for ...`. Empty return annotations are totally normal and expected for many function signatures. This fixes pdoc3#474
