BUG: next_workday observance wrongly adds BDay to holidays on weekdays about pandas HOT 2 OPEN

Hi @yaoyuan12. The docstring for next_workday says that the function returns next workday used for observances. Hence it will always give the "next working day". You can use weekend_to_monday or next_monday to achieve your desired result.

However, I think the confusion arises from the docs defined here: https://pandas.pydata.org/docs/dev/user_guide/timeseries.html, where the next_workday is defined as move Saturday and Sunday to Monday which contradicts the docstring.

We could either update the docs or try to deprecate the functions that give similar outputs. What do you think @mroeschke?

Hm at the least based on the docs, weekend_to_monday is defined to be the same as next_workday, so that is definitely wrong.

I seem to have an impression that when I wrote the code, I checked and next_workday did indeed produce the same effect as weekend_to_monday, so was that code changed somewhen along the way? Or I could be dreaming.
