Add `dyn` to `Any` documentation

I noticed that in documentation to `Any` trait the old trait object syntax is used, which could be confusing for newcomers, since we generally recommend using `dyn Trait` instead of just `Trait`. This PR changes the documentation comment, so that it uses `&dyn Any`, `&mut dyn Any` and `Box<dyn Any>`, correspondingly.
