DOC: Docs for groupby.transform() should mention that function parameter can be a string in transform

[ramvikrams]

Pandas version checks

• I have checked that the issue still exists on the latest versions of the docs on main here

Location of the documentation

https://pandas.pydata.org/pandas-docs/stable/reference/api/pandas.core.groupby.DataFrameGroupBy.transform.html
https://pandas.pydata.org/pandas-docs/stable/reference/api/pandas.core.groupby.SeriesGroupBy.transform.html

Documentation problem

the current doc does not indicate that a string is accepted as a function parameter transform in groupby.transform().

Suggested fix for documentation

docs for transform need to indicate that the function parameter in groupby.transform() can be a string function name, and that an example should be included.
