For the parameter documentation to be really taken as such, in its entirety,
by Sphinx, it must be indented relative to the :param: tag. Do this by
appending an extra indent after every line of the output and work around the
unnecessary indent of the last line by removing the trailing whitespace.
This required updating the existing tests and removing the expected but not
present any more whitespace from them, but as trailing whitespace in the
documentation is at best insignificant (and at worst harmful) anyhow, this is
not a big price to pay for simpler translator code.
This is important to preserve the structure of the lists which appear
correctly in Python output without any additional effort if the indentation is
lost.
It is also makes the behaviour consistent for
/**
*
*
*/
comments and those without the asterisks in the middle lines, as now the
indentation is preserved in both cases while it was only preserved when the
asterisks were present previously.
Using C++ types in documentation for Python users is more harmful than
useless, so use Python types whenever possible and allow defining "doctype"
typemap to customize this for the user-defined types.
reST is standard Python markup, so use *...*, ``...`` and so on instead of
_..._, '...' etc.
No other changes even though the mapping of some Doxygen tags to markup used
for them seems suspicions (e.g. \var almost certainly should be the same as
\em).
Use the more or less standard :param:, :type:, :return: and :raises: in the
function/methods descriptions.
Update the output expected from the Python tests accordingly.
Update Doxygen-specific Python unit tests to work with the new indentation.
Update one of Doxygen-specific Java tests to still build with the new handling
of srcdir.
